AG EMERGENCY!!!


This weekend, Emma hurt her left foot while she was doing gymnastics.  She was practicing the move called the back walkover (imagine you go into your bridge and then you kick your legs over one at a time).  Her foot was bleeding on the side near baby toe and it looked like it is swollen.  So I decided to bring her to the urgent care clinic to have it examined right away!!!!  I had to make sure she did not further injure the foot because you never know what could happen and she could possibly miss her swimming competition scheduled next week.

The prognosis? A sprained toe.  The doctor at the urgent care clinic recommended to use the foot cast and crutches from the feel better kit from AG. It comes crutches, a cast for the foot, a cast for the arm, ice pack, a bandage and stickers. You can see the complete set in the picture down below.  So, I took the recommendation from the doctor to ensure that Emma would not apply further pressure on her toe so we could speed the healing process.  I figure 7 days would be okay to wear and she would be healed by the time her swimming competition would take place next week on Friday.  Now just in case you don't have the feel better kit from AG and need a foot cast immediately, don't worry.  Here's an alternative:   you can just use a paper tube from a toilet paper roll and then just put masking tape around it. Voila!

If you have any ideas on what I can blog about next, then you can just comment down below. Blog to you later :)

  1. I am from Canada. How can I buy the AG items if I don't live in the US?

    1. Well it depends. If there is a Indigo store near you and it carries American Girl products then you can buy directly. You can order through the kiosks at your nearby Indigo store or you can order through the American Girl website.
