It takes me four hours to pee

Sitting around the apartment this weekend, the TV was on, Daniel was playing and life was good. Then the commercial for Levitra comes on. (One of those erectiel dysfunction drugs.) I was not really paying any attention, I have gotten good a tuning those out, and I was trying to get supper finished. The next thing I know Daniel says, "Mom I want to have (thought he was going to say E.D.) blood pressure when I grow up." The commercial explains that if you take medication for high blood pressure that it might not be a good idea to take Levitra as it can cause a severe drop in blood pressure. At least he is not planning on growing up and having E.D. I suppose.



Daniel is really hard to get to take a nap sometimes. He just will not stop moving and calm down enough to go to sleep. He knows that if he does not take a nap at daycare, he has to come home and stay in bed. (Yes I know I am mean.) He did not take a nap yesterday, and when I got home from work he had fallen asleep in his room. We woke him up to eat supper and then sent him back to his bed. I was in the bathtub trying to relax and he comes in and goes to the bathroom. 5 minutes later he is back again. My husband and I knew he did not need to pee again as he had just went and that he was just trying to get out of bed. Jeff told him he was going to be in trouble if he did not pee. After a few minutes of him standing there and nothing happening, Jeff said, "Now Daniel doyou really ahev to pee or are you just trying to get out of bed?" Daniel thought about it for a minute and then said, "Jeff it takes me 4 hours to pee."



Maybe he should talk to his doctor about Detrol? Or maybe that is a side effect of his blood pressure?

Natalie, I raised three active boys--so I know what you're going through. Daniel is at the cutest age--where he is learning everything he can. I love it when kids spout out commercials. How cute...
Hugs,
Betsy
