what you have to look forward to...

They say a picture is worth -- well, 25 cents...

Yeah, that is from this afternoon. For a quarter DD swallowed Sunday afternoon. We are incredibly lucky she didn't choke on it (she was alone in her room for naptime). And she's the safe kid who never puts things in her mouth! I'm predicting a Children's Hospital fishing expedition before the week is out.

Ugh.

Yikes! Are you guys supposed to wait and see if she passes it? Owie!

I foresee a lot of scrambled eggs in your daughter's future.....

Ugh! So sorry.

Oh my gosh! How did you know she swallowed it? Did she tell you? I get nervous about this because my DH lays on the floor to play with Sydney and everything falls out of his pocket.

Wow! I see lots of fiber in her future. I really hope it passes on its own. How long will they give her to pass it before going in to retreive it? Lots of quarter passing juju being sent your way.

I was wonder this also. I hope everything 'comes out' ok.

I hope this "passes" without incident!

And, yeah, did your DD let you know she ate it? (So worried about that!)

Yes, thank goodness. And thank goodness she didn't choke! It was naptime and she was alone in her room and suddenly started crying and told us she had swallowed a penny, later identified by her as a quarter. Another nestie's DS choked on a quarter and she said it took 3 tries with the heimlich to get it out. I'm waiting to hear from the pediatrician today about next steps but yep, she is supposed to be eating bran muffins -- ate half of one last night and sent her to DC with another this morning.

Omg, glad she didn't choke on it. Hope it comes out safely.

OMG.. this is my nightmare. Charlie is always putting crap in his mouth.. rocks, sticks, dirt. I don't think he's swallowed anything... yet.

At the church nursery last Sunday, we picked him up and he had two pieces of plastic from some broken toy in his mouth. The main caregiver was mortified and freaked out. We saw her yesterday and she was still so concerned, but so far, everything seems fine. (Cross fingers!)

JenniferTCU · May 2011

Oh Pesky, I am so sorry. I hope it passes without further intervention.

Strunella · May 2011

YIKES! Poor thing...hope you "see" it soon!

vanverth · May 2011

Hope this comes out all right in the end.

peeper72 · May 2011

Oh my gosh! What a good girl to tell you she swallowed it. But what a bummer that she swallowed it. I hope it will pass soon.

Vincent · May 2011

WOW! I would be freaking out. I guess these are things that I get to look forward to in my daughter's future. I'm glad that your daughter didn't have serious issues. Smile
