any time an infant or toddler eats or drinks something that is not made for human consumption you should call the poison control hotline at 1-800-222-1222. write that phone number down and post it on your refrigerator for easy access! you should call your pediatrician for advice about your child's fever and runny nose. it's doubtful the plant food caused this but we are into flu season and flu can be very serious in a one-year-old. you need to get this situation assessed as soon as possible. if your baby is not eating or drinking take him to the emergency room. if your baby is not producing a wet diaper at least every 3 hours get him to the emergency room. plant food contains various chemicals that are highly unsafe for anyone to consume (eat/drink). these things also are unsafe for your pets to drink so you should find a way to prevent them from doing so. perhaps place a mesh cover over the christmas tree bowl so they cannot reach the water or something. wishing you well!
my one year old drank some water from the christmas tree with tree food in it bow he is really sick could that be why? . he has had a fever for close to 3 days and is a little runny in the nose. the cats drink the water too could he have picked up their germs and gotten sick? he hasn't ate good or drank much and is on pedialyte.
