Morning! I’m slightly on tenterhooks this morning, because my sweet 9 yr old daughter Coco tried to make a hot water bottle for me last night, as a surprise, but she dropped the bottle as she poured in the boiling water and it poured all over one of her hands 😩 As soon as I heard her scream I ran in and she had already taken herself to the bathroom to put her hand in cold water. Her hand was bright red from the burn. We then ran cold water over her hand solidly for 20 minutes. She was so good and patient! She was in so much pain too, poor little thing, but with calpol she managed to sleep. Remarkably, looking at her hand this morning (she’s still sleeping) it looks as though there’s no blistering and only a small area on one finger that still looks burnt. I hope it hurts less when she wakes up. I’m so glad I did the first aid course for children when my first child was a baby! The A&E nurses who taught us said that the most important thing to do for a burn was to immediately run it under cold water for a full 20 minutes and it just so happens that I had told Coco this just a few days ago. I usually don’t bother doing it myself for small cooking burns, so I always get blisters, but doing it for Coco really seems to have worked! So for any of you with kids I reckon it’s really worth teaching them basic first aid, because you never know what they might actually remember in a situation like this. Running cold water on burns for 20 minutes is a great top tip.
