Mood:
So about a week ago, Ben sprouted his first tooth! We think it's because of the excitement of Hannukah that caused it. Anyways. So earlier this evening, Ben was sitting in his crib as I was cleaning up his room. I gave him a teething ring because I think that's what good parents do when their babies have teeth coming in.
So a couple minutes go by and I notice that Ben is all wet. Was it drool? No. Was it urine? No. Ben some how popped his teething ring. So of course, the bright one I am, thought it was poisonous and we were going to have to rush Ben away to have his stomach pumped. So I called the doctor and she said that she's never heard of that happening before and to call the poison control center! So I did. The man was very nice and told me that all teething rings are non-toxic.
So at the end of the day, what I expected to be a future episode of ER, was not. Ben must be part caveman and/or wolf tearing that teething ring to shreads like that. I wonder if I'm going to have to give him big pieces of raw meat to gnaw on soon.
