Baby-poll poll My 15 month old came home from daycare with white blisters on the inside of his lips, other than that he seems to be fine. Does anyone know what this might be?

I would say hand foot and mouth disease too. My son got it at that age and it was a big deal...he cried so hard cause he couldn`t drink his bottle. The pain was to unbearable for him. That is actually how I got him off the bottle cause he couldn`t drink from it. I would still take him to the pediatrician.

i tell you there are so many germs going on in t day care,t kid puts toys in his mouth which has been in other kdis mouths then they touch food...really they sould wash t toys once every week and wash kids hands b4 eating,keeps things clean,and try thr best but you know how it goes with these places,if there taking care of t child well then i would worry.bath him well when he comes home but i think you sould mention it to them to b extra clean to try lol!if t blister doesnt go away after 2 days then go to t doctor.

If he came home from daycare with them you should contact not only your pediatrician but also your child care provider. They may have already recieved a phone call from other parents and should have notified you imediately as to the situation. If they don`t know then they should since your child could give it to others. Both foot in mouth and thrush are contagous by contact and we all know how kids love putting things in their mouths.

Hand foot mouth...very contagious. Poor little kids...they get the blisters in their mouth and throat and it is super painful and they can bleed :(

Thrush would be my guess, but i would take him to the doc. The meds help! :-)

my son had hand-foot-mouth its not really a big deal.. usually goes away on its own if that is what ti is.. but watch for thrush he also got that from having the virus.

i would go to the dr. asap. ive heard of hand-foot-mouth virus, but never have actually seen it. i would just schedule and appointment to be sure, and refrain from any spicy foods for now that might hurt him like nmck said, no tmoato sauce, ketchup that sort of thing .

nmck (905.4 days ago)
Could be be Hand-Foot-Mouth Virus. It is VERY common in kids, especially during the warm months and they can pick it up anywhere. It often is later accompanied by a low fever and diarrhea. If it is, the only treatment is tylenol. Also, don`t feed him anything acidic like tomato sauce.

Maybe cold sores? Or maybe he ate some food that was too hot? Sounds like a possibility but I hope not.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
