Mamas, I saw a post here on fb a few weeks ago about Walmart jelly shoes being linked to elevated lead levels in children and didn't believe it because there was nothing online about it.
Well, liv basically only wears these (she has many pairs) and today at her check up her lead levels were elevated. I've seen quite a few of my friends' kids wearing these jellies bc they are SO DANG CUTE. Just be aware!

Ok UPDATE:
... They drew her blood again and the level was low again. He said that if the nurse doesn't wait long enough for the alcohol to dry before pricking her finger it can cause the levels to be raised. He looked up the walmart jelly shoe thing online and told me if it was HIS kid he would probably still toss the shoes.
🤷🏻♀️ soooo I'll probably still toss them but it really sucks.
