Not how I wanted to start my evening.

apparently, my youngest (almost 4) and office supplies don't mix well.

 

[Taylorz71]

wow, that is not good.

 

[Scutter01]

Alright, this is important: Did the doctor call it a clip or a magazine?





Seriously, hope everything turns out. Prayers sent.

Did he inhale it or swallow it???

 

[Indy_Guy_77]

No kidding!

I'm going with swallowing... That's a mighty big paper magazine to have been aspirated by a little kid. Stranger things have happened, though...

They just gonna hope it passes, or go in after it?

-J-

 

[AmericanBob]

swallowed and hoping for a pass. we were told " mac and cheese and mashed potatoes" the attending was hoping it would create a "poop cocoon" around the paper clip. and yes, that was a medical term.

 

[Benny]

LOL, I can't help but laugh at that X-Ray, but your son will be in my prayers. Kids swallow the damnedest things, so a paper clip should be no problem. Here's to the poop cocoon!

 

[Mackey]

You should have the xray and the paperclip when it passes and give it to him when he's 18 or so.

 

[Caleb]

Praying for you guys

We have a 4 year old daughter, and I know we'd be in full freak out mode right now if that was her.

Prayers that everything will pass ok without any complications. Stomach acid is pretty powerful too, so if not maybe it will break it down and prevent surgical options.

 

[hoosierdoc]

It seems to be in the stomach, did they just let him pass it? I have seen a few button. Batteries in the last 12 months. Those are emergent removals if in stomach/esophagus. Lots of pleasure device X-rays too. One 3 days ago actually.

He'll be ok. Just get a metal detector in a few weeks to see if
Gone.

I think I just found a new name for one of my friends

Seriously though I hope everything comes out alright. Best Wishes

Glad you're cool about it and there's a plan of action. Freaking out doesn't do any good.

 

[LEaSH]

Don't worry, my little brother got a Lego stuck in his nose at about that age.

Mom freaked. And then beat the snot out of me for laughing uncontrollably about the situation. I didn't even put it there!

Good, at first I was thinking he inhaled it somehow, it looked closer to his lungs than stomach. Hopefully all goes well!
How did you realize that he had swallowed it?

At least it should pass easy enough, not really any sharp edges. Good luck!

Hope all turns out good for you guys. Prayers sent.

Reminds me of grumpy old men. "kids swallow quarters all the time, it's when they poop out 2 dimes and nickel that you got to start worrying"

 

[tom1025]

Poop cocoon! I am going to google that.

I told you I slipped in the shower and I asked you to not bring it up even if you left out names. This is a HUGE breach of trust.

Sounds like a prune juice week is in store. Fun.
