Lead test
Did anyone else's baby not pass the lead test? My baby's was slightly over, and now they want us to get blood drawn to double check the levels. We live in an older home, but I have no idea why it would be slightly elevated. And honestly, I'm worried.

I just had this happen! My son had his finger pricked at his 1 year appointment and his lead level was elevated so he had to get his blood drawn and retested and his levels came back completely normal. Apparently it’s super common to get a false result with the first test so don’t panic too much until you get the second test back 😊
@Brianna thank you for replying! That makes me feel better. How did they draw blood from your little one?
No problem! Unfortunately it was a blood draw from his arm. 😢 but it’s very quick!
