Things that give me a coronary...

When I go to change Jacob in the morning and he looks like THIS:

Before anyone gets overly concerned, it's a fairly common (1 in 20) reaction to the MMRV combo immunization they're dishing out at 15 months now. Note the big SPOT on the leg where the shot went in.

(And yes, I checked - no mercury entered my son's bloodstream in the first 15 months of his life via vaccinations!)

LOL, at least he's happy about it. But that rash would've taken years from my life.

Same here. And it popped up on a day when I _HAD_ to be in Boston to get a project going, _HAD_ to catch the train, could NOT put it off... but of course I did, drove to Boston, handed sir-splotch-a-lot off to Julie and she took him to the pediatrician. *sigh*

And you know this is coming from the teenage pregnant thread.
But I really don't know how single parents can raise kids by themselves. I have the most unbelievable respect for single parents who pull this off on their own. I don't know how I could do it by myself, and I got two girls ( which are so much easier to take care of than boys at YOUNG AGES ), again I'm probably going to pay for it looking into the future of the teen years for girls.

Glad its nothing serious. And good job on avoiding any mercury vaccines
