Puking

[TheGoodLife]

Yeah, I wouldn't take any pics or bag things (unless it was clothes that I'd be sending home anyway). But I expect parents to be responsible and they alway have, been I guess.

My stomach is in knots thinking of bagging a diarrhea diaper or stopping to take a pic of puke. Kudos to you! My stomach could not do it. ::

Shock and awe.

They never see it coming. Also, I offer it to them so they can get it cultured if need be.

I just use used ziplocs. Instead of throwing away big ziplocs I turn then inside out and wash. Let dry then stuff in a sack. If I need to send home puke clothes or diaper, I just pop them in and seal.

Proof makes ALL the difference when they want to minimize it or blame it on allergies, teething, something they ate, post nasal drip or whatever.

It WORKS

I bet they never see it coming. I'm just trying to imagine the faces of the parents while being handled puke or diarrhea. I'm laughing out loud just thinking about it!

It's bagged and I globe and mask to take it out but they SEE it.

It stops the fantastical thinking that it was just a spit up or just a soft bm. It's "in your face" bit I do it in a clinical sharing way. I dreamt up that proof plan a few years back and it works 100 percent of the time.

You are quite clearly a genius. And if my stomach can handle it next time, I'm so doing this.

When I get the text/call/email that says the child is acting perfectly normally, I just say "Oh GOOOD Then he/she can come back day after tomorrow if all stays well. Hope your night goes well!!!!!! "

What a timely post! I just had a 12 mo old puke everything he ate halfway through breakfast... then between cleaning everything up and getting him down he started eating again! ::

I debated sending him home but after texting mom "Child just puked up his whole breakfast" she replied "Oh no, I'll come get him" so I didn't have to make the decision. Gotta love "good" parents!

I am going to say 1st time BUT it depends. If a child gags and throws up then no I do not send them home. but look sick you are leaving.
