Hi girls,

I was minding my own business this afternoon, helping my class through their leavers assembly then I just got stung by a sodding wasp! Whole school was in the hall along with all my kids' parents, but I had to dash out before I swore my head off. Anyway it stung the knuckle on my index finger and my whole hand is swollen, and it is now travelling up my arm. I called the doc and they said I could take an antihistamine but nothing comes with a guarantee of not affecting baby. The journey we have taken to get PG has been too long and tough, so I don't want to risk it.

Does anyone have any remedies they can suggest for the swelling and pain?

Paracetamol for the pain and an ice pack on the sting. God love you...they are my absolute phobia x
 
Thanks Samsgirl, I've just made a baking soda paste and put it on the sting site and covered it in a bandage.

I can't offer more advice but I just want to say ouch... Knuckle is the worst!!
