What has your child Swallowed??

My seven year old just swallowed the Claw on a Spider he is building from leggo. It got me thinking what has your child swallowed?

My daughter tried to swallow a 5 cent piece when she was learning to crawl she took it out of a visitor handbag. I had just had my nails done and thank god as i needed them the more she paniced and tried to breathe/gasp/scream the tighter it got stuck at the back of he throat it seemed.

My cousin swallowed a dead ****roach outside when she was a baby. They found her with the legs hanging out her mouth!:o

ewwl lol

my son managed a bobby pin and nearly a 10 cent piece...his twin sis only managed to put an apple seed in her ear and lego up her nose.
DD2 didn't swallow anything...she's making up for it being trouble as a teenager!

oh my thats so interesting never thought about apple seeds being a no no, my sister used to put peas up her nose and shoot then across the table haha

thanks for sharing

my son used to throw the peas under the table on his sis's side and blame her!

My sister found her 2year old son with two spider legs hanging out of his mouth whilst he munched he said to her "Yum, yum Mum" ... she absolutely freaked out thinking OMG what if it was a redback as she lives in a remote country town & they are about everywhere there :rolleyes:

My 11 month old DD grabbed a leaf off a tree as we walked passed and choked on it. I had to tip her upside down and smack her firmly between the shoulder blades and she thru it back up. I had no idea until my sister said OMG Molly is turning purple :redface:
Hoody

My DS at 8 months choked on kangaroo pellets when I took him to the zoo. I was too busy feeding the kangaroos to notice him taking it out and tasting it! But I heard the gagging and pulled them out. Lucky!

DS likes to eat beetles and bugs, blerk!

Don't think DD has eaten anything.

But when i was a baby i choked on a 5c coin and also ate one of mum's small diamonds, oops! Not sure how i got it in the first place though.

DD has not swallowed anything strange yet .. infact she hardly put weird stuff in her mouth

When they were little DH's brother called his mother in a hysterical laughing bout to come and see what DH was doing ... he was eating ticks and reffering to them as raisens. Later got out that Big brother caught all the ticks and TOLD DH it was raisens. :rolleyes:

oh my wow some times we do do silly things.

i dont know about all of you but i am so finding this thread interesting and educational too thanks for sharing everyone

Hey, well i dont have kids of my own (yet!) but when i was a bubba myself i had one of those gold naming braclets. To which i promtly chewed on the locket off and swallowed it... poor mum and dad having to go through my poo for 3 days (yes 3 days!) i obviously wanted them to suffer!!!

My DD *hid* a 20c coin in her mouth (at age 5) and had a coughing fit. She inhaled the coin and it lodged at the top of her windpipe.

She had surgery later that day to have it removed.

oh my goodness i gather everything ended up o.k? how was she able to breathe?

Lordy! We have a family legend where my mother and her cousin decided they would eat several bobby pins each, when my nanna freaked out and took them to the dr he advised her to feed them some cotton wool (!!) So they both ate a cottonwoolball and vegemite sandwich!! :lol:

On a similar vein, DD1 sucked on a syngonium leaf (corrosive) and that needed a phone call to the poisons info centre and some milk and yoghurt to fix it. :rolleyes:

It was stuck sideways at the intersection of the wind pipe and the oesophogus (sp?) and so enough air was passing around it to keep her conscious.

She still has the x-rays... made for an interesting show and tell ;)
