Had to call poison control last night...

Last night dh and I were laying down with the Boys. They both had high fevers.


I had gotten up to get a quick bowl of cereal and Jay had checked the medicine chart for the Boys. So he checked it and when he caem back into the room he said that he had just given Justin tylenol.. I checked the chart and Jay had misread what I wrote. I gave Justin tylenol and 8pm and he thought I wrote 8am so he gave Justin more tylenol at 10pm. It had only been 2 hours. I called ask a nurse at our local hospital and she told me to call poison control. My heart dropped... Anyway, I called and they said that it was ok and that he was under the toxic level (thank God)


Then I woke up this morning and I have a sore throat and I don't feel good. I am still laying in bed, I got my babies breakfast and am having them lay in bed with me.


I am having the WORST cramps today, and I am spotting a bit. So, not only have I had my period 2x this month but now I am spottting. It's very little. I have a Dr.'s appt on the 13th. Until then I freak out and worry.. I am also getting my bloodowork redone on Friday.


It just doesn't stop for me....

Heather,

I have had the irregular period for 10+ years. I've had two period, no periods, a 2-week period - you name it, I've had it. I don't know if it was nerves, getting older, hereditary (my mom went through similar changes), or hormones. I know it's a pain in the neck, though. I got tired of wearing a pantiliner all the time, "just in case." It's good you have the appointment to check it. What is the bloodwork for?

About the poison control... I'm so glad it turned out to be okay for Justin. Once, I accidentally took my huband's pile of pills instead of mine, and he is a diabetic. I had to call poison control. They told me to just eat more. We were going to the drive-in that night, and I had to stuff my face! lol!

Oh how scary Heather, I'm so glad that Justin is ok. How is he feeling?


Sorry to hear that it sounds like you're getting sick, I hope it passes quickly


Hugs & Prayers,
