Last Saturday we are at a party in the backyard. There was a pool and slide and Kyleeann played there for awhile but eventually wandered around the yard and found a toy in the grass. Robert and I both had an eye on her while we were chatting and she was doing fine. Then all of sudden she was crying and Robert ran and got her from the fire ant hill she stepped in. Robert dunked her legs in the pool and then three of us worked on getting the rest off her. Luckily it was a party full of doctors, residents, and med students. She actually calmed down pretty quickly and we gave her Benadryl.
Here is her bites after it happened
Both legs
Back of her legs
Here is before bed that night. Most of the bites were on her feet and her legs below her knees. She did get some above her knees as you can see in the picture. She got two on her stomach and a few on her arms.
Here is a few days later
A week later
They are still very noticeable. I have been having her only wear her flip flops so there is less to irritate the bites and at night she wears pajama shorts because pajama pants have elastic on the ankle and it bothers her.
