Blood

The other day I was talking to my mom while sitting in my new chair in the living room (OMG my quality of life has gone up now that I have living room furniture!), when Andy started to scream. Being that he is a "high needs" baby, this is a common occurrance, so I thought nothing of it. When is Andy not screaming? I check him out and quickly freak. There is blood coming out of my little man's mouth!!!!! I hang up quickly, pick him up, and try to figure out what happened. There was no indication of him falling, scraping himself, biting his tongue or lip, or anything. But his upper lip was still bleeding a lot. And he wasn't swallowing it, so it pooled in his mouth and dripped onto his jumper. I of course freak out and call Peter who couldn't help as he was at work. But the blood stopped as quickly as it had started, leaving me a total wreck but with an okay baby. I tried to put ice on his lip, but Andy just wanted to suck on the ice and then push it away over and over again. Now he just has a little scab on his lip, and he forgot the incident immediately. I was certainly shook up though. It was the first time he's actually bled, and I didn't like it. Andy's blood should stay in his body, thank you very much. Poor little guy.
