More from CafeMom: 13 Labor & Delivery ‘Surprises’ We’re Kidan Glad No One Told Us About  Although I was glad there was nothing seriously wrong, I was a bit embarrassed to have rushed to the hospital for something that was eventually cured by some apple juice and a bowlful of raisins. Was it my most proud parenting moment? No, no it was not.  Thankfully, I know I’m not alone when it comes to having rushed to the emergency room with a kid for something embarrassing, ridiculous, or just plain unnecessary. It happens to all parents at one point or another. But hey, we can’t help it; kids can’t always tells us what’s wrong, or they get scared themselves when they feel like they are getting sick. We’re only human! Read on for some hilarious and cringeworthy stories and then double-check to make sure that the ol’ health insurance card is handy — it could be anyone next! After all, it’s always better to be safe (if somewhat embarrassed) than sorry, right? “The next morning I was cleaning up the bedroom and looked over to see my 18-month-old chewing on something. It was a CONDOM. Apparently my husband opened it the night before but we fell asleep before we used it so he dropped it on the floor. “My baby was chewing on a condom like it was a chew toy. I didn’t end up taking him to the ER but I did call poison control because of the spermicide. That was a classy moment in my life.” — Name withheld by request “While we were there, my 3-year-old was chattering away and said something about playing ‘piggy bank’ with the baby. Long story short, we eventually figured out that the 3-year-old had put money down the back of the baby’s diaper because he thought it was funny when the money fell out. Apparently one dime didn’t fall out and the baby pooped on it.  “$150 co-pay for a pooped-on dime. Thanks, kid.” — Val E., Des Moines, Iowa “So, yep, took my kid to the hospital because she binged on tiny oranges.” — Patti S., Austin, Texas “Gas pain is no joke but I still felt like the doctor was laughing at us.” — Jene R., Springfield, Missouri More from CafeMom: 15 Unintentionally Hilarious & Inappropriate Kid Drawings “Nope. She was just kind of an a-hole baby who liked to cry a lot. The doctor was like, ‘Yeah, babies cry, that’s kind of their thing. They do that.’ “I got sent home with a prescription to take a nap.” — Name withheld by request “I was so mad! What the hell, kid? The doctor asked her why she wasn’t walking on it before and she said it was because ‘hopping is fun’ and that she liked being carried. Did I mention we had a new baby at home?  “Her foot was fine. She just wanted attention and some babying. Expensive way to ask for that!” — Missie T., Hudson, Wisconsin “Rushed him to the ER. Discovered that the party had featured red velvet cupcakes and that my son had way too many. He was fine, just over-sugared. So embarrassing.” — DeAnna D., Joplin, Missouri “The ER doc was straight-up laughing at me when he told me that my son had colored them with a marker. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND BOYS.” — Name withheld by request More from CafeMom: 14 Most Embarrassing Things Kids Have Done in Church
