Musings of An Earthenvessel
Apr. 13, 2008 - Please pray for our burns!

www.homeschoolblogger.com/earthenvessel/

The kids and I are really suffering with these sunburns! I guess we are not the only ones from our home fellowship who got burned really bad. A friend at church told us to put dark vinegar on the burns. It takes the sting out. We tried it and it does seem to be helping, but with the deeper burns, it will take a while to heal. Please pray for us and the others who got burned yesterday. One who got burned really badly is a friend who is only 4 weeks away from delivering her 6th child. She was having some contractions yesterday while we were at the beach. She really wants to have a home birth this go around. The sunburn is going to take a lot out of her I know, because it has really taken the kids and me down. I just want to go curl up in bed and sleep until the burning goes away. I am sure the kids are feeling much the same. Of course, they don't want to miss out on anything by sleeping! I worry about not being able to sleep tonight if I sleep today.

I'm so sorry to hear that you and your kids are dealing with this! That's not fun!

Thanks for your comments on my blog! My two older kids are just starting Unit 3 in Bigger. We are doing 4 day weeks right now. And we are really liking Heart of Dakota! Are you and your kids liking it?

Dee, remind her to stay cool. The sunburn itself should not be harmful to her pregnancy, but she needs to keep her body temp from elevating. The burn will make her temp elevated, and therefore, the whole body will be warmer than normal. Cold compresses and moisturizing lotion on the burned areas will certainly help. The personal cold packs or a cool towel across the back of her neck and shoulders, etc. - that way she won't be come overheated and/or body temp go too high during the couple days her sunburn lasts... ~Pinky (and now your Doula friend 'wink)

About Me

A blog of whatever is on my heart and mind that day, particularly in context of being a homeschool mom. Hopefully it will be an encouragement to homeschoolers and also those who don't homeschool.
