It's all my fault! I have a clamp light that I use for photography handing behind my couch and Syd was standing on me, trying to touch the smooth aluminum grooves that run on the outside of it. It's totally smooth so I thought it was fine to let her explore. Well, she stuck her finger in the one flippin hole that's on it before I could do anything. The inside is quite the opposite of the outside. It was jagged. I had no idea. :( Blood began gushing everywhere.
50 minutes later, we finally had the bleeding under control. We iced it and wrapped it in steri-strips, then covered that with a band aid-twice because the first time bled through. We also put mittens on as she was trying to eat the band aid.
This experience was horrible! I thought it was never going to stop! Syd was laughing the whole time, only a little mad that we were holding her finger to put pressure on the wound. Leave it to my baby to laugh at a major bleed. This morning she is fine. Her finger is still sealed closed despite her ripping off the dressing last night. I'm just happy she didn't eat the bandaid. I really didn't want to be on poop-watch.
