    Children under the age of 5 are easy to grasp objects, are still in the period of psychological growth, have a strong curiosity, strong desire for knowledge, and are very prone to imitation. Therefore, Bao mothers must pay attention to their children's behavior, store drugs carefully, and prevent children from swallowing them by mistake. This method needs to be kept in mind.

    In ordinary life, you must be more vigilant and do more so.

    Medicines, which are classified as "dangerous goods" at home, should be stored carefully, so that children are not close at hand, and they can be scratched and touched at will. In particular, such places, such as pillows, bed cabinets, and dining tables, need to be less druggiving.

    Bao's mother was able to put every medicine in my house independently and store it in a locked cardboard box. Then, put it within your child's reach. Or, put it in a locked drawer so that the child can't see it.

    It is more difficult for a mother to coax her baby to take medicine than to put her child to sleep. Because of this, mothers should also pay attention to being objective. When feeding your child medicine, be sure to do it the right way.

    Otherwise, the mother always coaxes the baby to "the medicine is red bean syrup and sugar cubes", and if the child forgets it, it is very likely that when he sees the glass bottle, he recalls that it is a sugar cube and stuffs it into his mouth. Only by disconnecting from the root, such wrong thoughts, it is not easy for children to mistakenly eat the drug as a lollipop.

    Like some small ** platforms, it is often seen that some maternal and infant bloggers will go to the children's eyes to practice encountering electric plugs, adults in order to make the child feel more deeply, dressed up as "foaming at the mouth", although it may be a little scared of the baby, but the advantage of this is that the child will never eat adult medicine again.

    All in all, if the child accidentally ingests the drug, it is harmful and not beneficial, and the mother needs to help the child pay more attention to safety, take good care of the child, and tell the child more at ordinary times.

When giving medicine to your child, do not deceive your child by saying "eat sugar", but clearly tell him that this is xx's medicine, which can only be taken when he is sick and cannot be put in his mouth at ordinary times.

    My child had a drug accident when he was two years old.

    That day, my father-in-law's medicine was left on the coffee table. I cook in the kitchen. When I came out, I saw the kid playing with the medicine bottle.

    A capsule skin was thrown into the trash, and a pill was still in my hand. I was terrified and rushed to get the child to spit out. I didn't see the pills in my mouth.

    I'm still worried. I immediately took the medicine and took the child to the hospital. The doctor looked at the medicine I was taking and said there was nothing wrong with the antipyretics.

    It was a false alarm.
