DD Goes To School!

At exactly 2 months after her 4th birthday, we think that DD is finally ready for school! She now attends the Nursery 2 class (for children who turn 4 years old this year) at her big brother's school. :) Here she is, all happy and excited, carrying her new school bag!

Hylands Teething Tablets Update

Just a quick update to the post about Hylands Teething Tablets which I wrote in December 2007.

There was finally a recall of the tablets in October 2010. Finally!

From the FDA website:

"Hyland's Teething Tablets are manufactured to contain a small amount of belladonna, a substance that can cause serious harm at larger doses. For such a product, it is important that the amount of belladonna be carefully controlled. FDA laboratory analysis, however, has found that Hyland’s Teething Tablets contain inconsistent amounts of belladonna. In addition, the FDA has received reports of serious adverse events in children taking this product that are consistent with belladonna toxicity. The FDA has also received reports of children who consumed more tablets than recommended, because the containers do not have child resistant caps."
