Strep Throat On Toys My 21 Month Old Has Strep Throat...?

My 21 month old has strep throat...? - strep throat on toys

... led us to the emergency room last night I had difficulty swallowing. Follow today with the pediatrician, and although it can swallow a little better, still does not seem to want to drink anything but juice with ice. It is also irrelevant that at all times and can not send what you want. He is currently Tylenol and penicillin G was shot last night. He is good with the drugs ...

We have showed all the television, playing with toys, colors and flavors. Any ideas from experienced parents out there? Thank you ... any help is appreciated!

Do you have Pedialyte? It is also a good drink for them. If my children are sick, I give the equivalent of child safe. Remember (Pediasure Not? On his name!) Ice is also good if your throat hurts! The poor thing ...

In terms of activities, Love Sick Children Play-Doh! At least mine and not the kiddos in our hospital. :) Or maybe some Jell-O together make ... If she is old enough to understand what you are doing. Simple and quiet activities are best for not overworked and exhausted. Sounds like you do a good job! * Small Prayer! *

Search for love in it and let the juice it wants. So it is safer to be better ... when they should stop drinking, then you need to see them immediately ped.

Try them some Gatorade to make sure he is hydrated. Juice contains sugar, some have a natural ... This contributes to dehydration. If she does not drink Gatorade, frozen in Popsickle or a little juice. This will help you fill your body with depleted electrolytes.

The injection is very fast, so start acting like it, probably tonight or tomorrow morning. You still need to push fluids, however, because it will further weaken.

If you wash a new gun, squirt gun (very good) and fill the can with Gatorade and "Jet" in the mouth. It's fun for them and begins to drink.

Unfortunately, I have done many years of experience with it. Good luck.

Pedialyte is great ... Popsicles .... If you have a fever, I stayed away from milk-based products such as ice and the movie as much as possible ...... to perhaps see a new place to Disney? I see "The Lady and the Tramp" is back for a limited time. So they keep comfortable and well-hydrated, really, and I'm sure he'll be fine. Good luck!
