I had to call a dcm today to come and get her child immediately and take her to hospital RIGHT NOW!! I have never in over 25 years ever had a situation where I felt a baby needed to be seen by a doctor immediately!
This dcg has been with me since she was 7 months old. She is now 18 months old so she has been with me for over a year. Great mom and dad, sweet beautiful little girl but OMG she gave me close to a heart attack today.
I was so scared!
Nap time is from 1-3 30. I put all 6 children to bed. The 3 babies who sleep in the same room all went to sleep right away. At 3pm these 3 were all awake and I began to get them up. One by one I got them up, changed them and got them into their highchairs for their snacks. All was well. Each child had a snack. Whole wheat vegetable crackers which I ran out of so I also gave each child a 1/2 of a peanut butter Nature Valley granola bar and a sippy cup with grape juice. All children ate their snacks, drank their juice as they watched a baby Einstein video. All was still well. After snacks were eaten I began to remove cups and highchair trays washed the children's hands and faces. All was still well. One by one I started to take the babies out of their highchairs so that they could go and play. When I got to 18 month old daycare girl her face and chin were so red & swollen and covered with what I am almost positive were hives, her right eye was blood red and watering. All this in less than one minute! I don't know what happened. Some type of allergic reaction I know! But to what? She has had everything that I gave them today for snack. I have given her the crackers before as well as the same peanut butter bars before. The only thing a bit different was the juice. She has had blueberries at home and both mom and dad said she eats them by the fist full.
I could not believe what I was looking at! I was so worried and upset. She only had this reaction on her face. My dh and I checked her whole body which was fine. I never changed laundry detergent or fabric softener so can't be the sheets/blankets/facecloth I used to wash her with. Maybe a dye or something in the juice? I just feel horrible. Dad picked her up at about 410 about a 1/2 hour after I called mom. Mom called me tonight at 6 30 and baby and dad ares till at the hospital and have to stay for another 2 hours. They think it is an allergic reaction as well.
I guess I just needed to tell someone about this as I am so worried and still very unnerved by this right now. It was just so scary and I have never experienced anything that ever felt like this before.
It is nice to be able to come here for support. Thanks everyone.
