Nevermind... I feel really stupid, I've just washed his knees and his jeans he wore ealier and it's the same color and it washed all off. :dohh::dohh:
Thanks so much Marge! It's weird though, because these jeans he's had them for ages and have been washed several times!!



I've just noticed, Josh's knees are really blue and purple. All around it, at the back as well. He hasn't fall, it was not like that earlier today...

What is this??!!!! I'm really really worried now.

The nurse at the health info line said to draw around it to see if it'll get bigger, she had no idea what it could be... She said she doesn't want to send us to the emergency and wait 12+hours, but she said she doesn't want to say it's nothing to worry about.. I'm panicked! :dohh: He never had that before!

:shock::-sThat doesn't sound good! Usually blue and purple would lead me to believe that there is not enough oxygen getting to those areas...(circulation problems) unless its big bruise-I would get him checked asap :hug:
 
Did you get him some new pants? I know we have a pair of jeans that ms. Sharlotte wears that make her knees blue. Looks like a huge bruise... but it washed right off.

If that's not it, does he seemed bothered by it? Is he having trouble moving?

Doesn't bother him, he doesn't have trouble moving, doesn't seem to care.
 
I'd rub some lotion onto it to help the rough spot and just watch him. If he starts to favor his knees or show distress or pain, then take him in.

BTW he's growing into such a handsome boy :)
:hug:
 
aww what a sin! I have done something similar in the past-i was eating chocolate on the couch, and then laid down with alexa for a nap, and she smudged some in the back of her head and I thought it was old blood, so thought her head had been bleeding :dohh:

:hugs:
 
Well when i was wee i had the exact same thing on my knees and because i had a heart problem my dad took me to hospital and to find out it was from my jeans :rofl: Maybe its his jeans ? but keep a wee eye on it incase :hugs:

You aren't stupid you are a watchful concerned mama!
:hug:

Glad to hear it wasn't serious!
:hugs:
 
It looks awful! I would have flipped out too! I probably would have taken Jasper to emergency! Which would have been pretty embarressing, but I would have done it anyway!

Good thing he's fine!

ALSO good thing it happened to you, so when and if it happens to Jasper with jeans me as crazy over protective mummy wont have a heart attack!!!
