Would you worry if your child had eaten this much chocolate?

Just got home, put 2 year old in front room to play (no hazards in there-just for the record) while I sorted our stuff out and got drinks ready. Was gone for 5-7 mins!! Came back into the front room and stupid old me had left a box of milk tray chocolates right within reach. She’s very quietly sat there and demolished about 2/3s of a tray.
I don’t know what I’m expecting to happen but I’m mortified

False alarm. Just found loads that had fallen out the box when I moved the curtain!! She’s only eaten about 3 thank god!

At worst she’d have had an upset tummy. It would have been fine. Probably quite messy, but not life threatening. Unless the child is diabetic or something but I assume you’d have mentioned if so!

I’d have been gutted to lose the chocolates though. Grin

I wouldn't have been worried anyway to be honest

Nope, wouldn't worry. Even if she had eaten them all. Worst that would happen is she would throw up, which is a lesson that stays with you, even at that age, (knowing wink!).

Just to clarify is this a 'fur child' or human child?

Nah wouldn’t have worried me. I’d be annoyed to lose the chocolates though!

I wouldn't have even been worried if the 2 year old had eaten 2/3 of a tray. A tray only contains about 18 chocolates so whilst more than you might normally give a 2 year old its hardly excessive. Unless the 2 year old was a dog I don't see why this would cause alarm?

I’d only be worried she’d get the shits! Glad it was only 3 😂
