My 4 year old swallowed a penny Saturday afternoon. I'm not really worried about it, but as far as I know it has passed through. Should I be worried or am I just a bad dad?
When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
youre completely right to worry and to laugh. I dont think i would take mine to the doctors but id sift his poo because Im so tight Id want my money back.
My sweet new crank!
I know this is serious stuff and I don't mean to make light of your situation. But I can't help but tell you that my little one (a small furry Shetland Sheepdog) loves finding coins and playing with them. I saw her swallow a quarter once and completely freaked out. I called the emergency vet right away who told me she'd probably be fine and pass it, OR I could induce vomiting with a little hydrogen peroxide. So, being the concerned mom that I am, I induced vomiting in my poor little baby. About 15 minutes later, stomach contents emptied in the bath tub, I had my quarter back. Along with a nickle, two pennies and a gum wrapper. I call her my little piggy bank! Sara
