My Son Ate the Sleep Gummies Like Candy!
Okay so my 5yo found my sleep gummies and devoured half the jar. I was worried but he's fine, just extra sleepy. But omg the panic! Anyone else have this happen? Also, any tips for storing them so they don't look like candy?
Glad he's okay! Actually, it's a common thing. The gummies are designed to taste like candy, so kids think they're treats. Just make sure to keep them in a high cabinet or a locked container. And if they eat too many, they might have stomach upset or drowsiness. If they eat a lot, call poison control just to be safe. But looks like he learned his lesson, huh?
Oh my, that's a classic! I've had to hide mine from my hubby who treats them like gummy bears. But on a holistic note, maybe you could try a different form like a tea or tincture that doesn't appeal to kids. Also, maybe involve them in a routine so they know it's medicine, not candy.
Totally get it! My daughter once took a bite and then refused because the texture was too rubbery. So now I just keep them in a smell-proof bag. And I always say 'these are special vitamins for mama' to set the boundary. But yeah, a scare for sure. Glad he's fine!
