Jeremiah's wound is healing quickly and beautifully - hallelujah. I have followed-up with the doctor's orders of changing the bandage daily - using a cleanser, reapplying ointment, and wrapping it well. The cleanser and ointment have not been the issue; the bandage staying on and away from Jerry's sight - that's been my concern! His curiosity gets the best of him when he can see the pad and tape. So my approach has been to keep him in pants at all times. Occasionally he has been in his diaper and t-shirt, but pretty much for all activities - eat, sleep, play - he has been in pants (these are the times I am thankful to have enough to last until I get to the laundry - hand-washing is also my friend during these time!). Another hard part for him has been not being able to get in the tub - he loves water! Soon, though, the wonders of water will be felt by this amazing little man.
