Powdered vitamins = toddler candy? HELP!
So I left my new powdered vitamin supplement on the counter and my 3yo thought it was fun dip or something! She ripped open the packet and poured it straight into her mouth. Now she's bouncing off the walls and I'm freaking out. Anyone else have this happen? Should I call the doc??
OMG Tina! That's scary but also kinda funny. How much did she eat? Most vitamins are water-soluble so she'll probably just pee it out, but if it had iron or something, call poison control. Keep us posted!
Oh no! I've been there with my twins. They thought my greens powder was pixie dust. Now I keep everything in a locked cabinet. For future, try mixing powders into smoothies or yogurt so they don't associate it with candy. Also, check the label for caffeine or stimulants. Sending good vibes! ✨
Thanks guys! I called poison control and they said since it's just a multivitamin powder, she should be fine. Just gonna be a long night. Lesson learned: childproof everything! 😩
