The Verdict Is...

...it's not Hand, Foot & Mouth...Dr prescribed antibiotics for her finger, which is definitely a tissue infection...he said the sores in her mouth are from the teething & the sores on the outside are just coincidence, maybe from all the drool (they look like pimples)...but the antibiotics will take care of everything...he advised against the benedryl/MOM mixture & just advised to let her eat as she tolerates, whatever she tolerates & encourage fluids...thankfully it's nothing too serious...my baby girl gets her 1st ever prescription & medication...at 15 months that's not too shabby.


Now I must get myself off to bed & try to catch up on some sleep...thank you all again...I may just be weepy from exhaustion but this blog community is awesome & I really appreciate the show of concern & words of advice & encouragement.

  1. So glad Elena is okay! Been thinking about her. Is it wrong that "medicine" is one of Scarlett's regular words...? :) I hope Elena does not need to make that one of her words.

  2. Glad to hear she is going to be okay. That is pretty amazing that she has made it all the way to 15 months without any antibiotics, she is one healthy girl (purple crayon poo and all)!

  3. Good news! I hope she's feeling better, and give her an extra squeeze from me!

  4. I'm glad you were able to get her seen and that it's nothing serious. Still doesn't make it easy seeing our little ones uncomfortable. I hope she starts feeling better asap!

  7. Happy to hear she's on her way to healing. It sounds like an uncomfortable tri-fecta of ailments...and her poor little finger...ouch! What a trooper (both of you really!).
