> Thank you so much, he is doing pretty well now! Strong little guy! He is my son, I have a six year old daughter too whom never did this kind of stuff he gets into everything. God Bless
Yes, kids are resilient, and I hope he continues to feel better and has no long-term problems.
If it makes you feel any better, when I was 2 (and I am a girl) on two separate occasions I ate 1) rat poisoning that was behind the refrigerator, and 2) bleach tablets for the laundry. And my mom was a good mom, too! I was just a handful. So hopefully this will be just an incident that will blow over and he will be fine.
But excellent advice on the stashing of medications with children in the house.
And, please don't blame yourself at all -- for one, as I say to everyone who is on medications, you did not ask for the illness for which you are taking medication, and for two, 2 year olds will find anything and everything they are not supposed to have and put it in their mouths. You are an excellent mother whose 2 year old is pretty darn resourceful.
