   Cuddlebugs replied to Cuddlebugs's topic in General Nursing

   No, but seriously, can it really do that much harm to bash a babies melon now and then? Surely its a right of passage to end up in ER for each and every one of our offspring aint it? DONT SHOOT me.......... I dont have any bubs yet and before I le...

   Now I am all for accident prevention measures, specially if it is for infants and I love funny video clips but this is beyond belief!!!! www.thudguard.com and check out the you tube vid at the bottom of the home page!

3. Thumbguard -V - Thudguard?

   Cuddlebugs replied to Cuddlebugs's topic in General Nursing

   Now what would be a good idea is if the thudguard and the thumguard partnered up and sold together - throw in a bubble wrap suit and you have a remake of the elephant man waiting to happen!

4. Thumbguard -V - Thudguard?

   Cuddlebugs replied to Cuddlebugs's topic in General Nursing

   Talked with a patients mum today about the thumbguard and she surprised me by becoming very excited that there was such a product and quickly asked me for more information. Apparently she had been trying to get her 7 year old to stop sucking her thum...

5. Thumbguard -V - Thudguard?

   Cuddlebugs replied to Cuddlebugs's topic in General Nursing

   Sorry Danissa - my mistake. But according to the Thudguard website, over 500,000 head injuries occur in the UK every year so the accident and emergency sure see a lot of these wee lads and lassies! But then it is them who endorse it!

   Cuddlebugs replied to Cuddlebugs's topic in General Nursing

   Well actually Mike, if you check the website (inventor page www.thudguard.com) - you will see that she comes from SCOTLAND!!!!!!!!! There must be a few wee laddies and lassies toddling around Scotland wearing them before the US would start selling th...

   Cuddlebugs replied to Cuddlebugs's topic in General Nursing

   On my last thread, a nurse predicted that the Thudguard baby bump hat (selling in the UK), would soon be picked up in the US - and surprise, surprise! Looks like someone is selling them on eBay in the US now! Well that didn't take long - very cleve...

8. Thumbguard -V - Thudguard?

   Cuddlebugs posted a topic in General Nursing

   Hi all, After my last thread I accidently typed in the wrong word when showing a family the website for Thudguard (as their little 8 month old girl came in with a split forehead), I typed in the wrong "Thumguard" instead of "Thudguard". This brought...

9. What would you say?

   Cuddlebugs replied to Cuddlebugs's topic in General Nursing

   Yep - my oldest does things now that makes me cringe! But I have wondered if many bumps and thuds to a toddlers head may cause issues later in life such as learninging difficulties or become slow when it comes to, "What is right and what is wrong". I...

    Cuddlebugs replied to Cuddlebugs's topic in General Nursing

    seriously though, i think the star band has a more useful purpose than simple thuds to the head when learning to walk, or is there something i am missing here? also, where do you come up with a name like www.thudguard.com when you are thinking of wh...

11. When is a baby head bump serious?

    Cuddlebugs posted a topic in New Nurse

    Hi there, Spinning off from an earlier thread - I mentioned that in the course of my daily work, a mum of a 1 year old patient being over protective (I thought), by making him wear a protective bump hat (see www.thudguard.com) - well the thread had m...

12. Funny - Why is it that people say they.............

    Cuddlebugs posted a topic in Humor

    :bugeyes:Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up every two hours? If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing? Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat? Why...

    Hi there, I am in my first year and was looking after a toddler the other day when his mum reached for her bag and took out a foam hat. She put it on the 1 year old and turned to me and asked, "do you like his Thudguard safety hat? It's to stop the...
