    It's hand foot and mouth !!!

    Just returned from dr. DS has got hand, foot and mouth disease. So glad I had it checked out. DS must have picked it up from daycare (he started part-time last week). Apparently no other daycare kids have presented with it, but DS has only mixes with a few other kids, and they definitely don't have it as I just checked.

    Sigh ... at least it didn't happen next week as that's when I return to work after 14 months maternity leave! Hmm, guess this is the joys of daycare and/or school, huh?

    Thanks Hollye and Missymoo ... nah, not stressing ... not really my style .

    There's no treatment ... we've just got to wait till the spots go away. At least they aren't itchy spots and DS is his normal little self otherwise. Hopefully he stays that way!
