Keep all medicines in a locked cabinet and out of baby s reach. Aspirin is the most common cause of childhood poisoning. Make sure all drugs get returned to the cabinet after use. All items should be unplugged to avoid electrical shock in case they are pulled down into water. Always check water temperature before placing baby into water.
Wastebaskets are very interesting to baby.
Make sure you throw out empty pillboxes, razors, pills and soap in a special wastebasket that is out of baby s reach. It only takes two ounces of water for a baby to drown. Place floor grippers on the bottom of the tub to prevent slippage and a cover on the waterspout to protect babies from hitting their heads. If you need to use cups in the bathroom, make sure they are paper or plastic, so there is less chance of broken glass.
