Fork

Oh my gosh, I can't believe this happened....we were at a friend's house on Friday night watching basketball & Campbell was eating her pizza with a plastic fork. Half of a fork tine broke off in her pizza & before I could get it out of her mouth she swallowed it. She seemed totally fine, but I kept getting more & more worried about it as the night went on & called the nurse line around midnight. That nurse said to take her to the ER right away. Since Campbell was sound asleep, I thought I'd get a second opinion, so I called the ER & I got to talk to a very helpful ER nurse. She even asked the ER doctor & they said that I didn't need to take her in that night, but gave me some warning signs to watch for and if I saw them to bring her in right away. The next morning, I called Pediatrics Urgent Care to see what they said. The Peds nurse said to check her diapers to see that it passes and if it doesn't pass by Monday I should take her in.

So after 2 days of checking dirty diapers, I found the piece. Hooray! Gabe got off too easy because I found it just as it was his turn to start checking diapers.

No more eating with plastic forks for Campbell! Needless to say, I am not including a picture with this post. :)
