18 month old licked a Crayola pens should I call toxic helpline or AIBU?

[MummaHud]

My 18 month old just licked one of his big sisters Crayola silly scents felt tip in blue.. now his tounge is blue.

we’ve scrubbed his tounge with his tooth brush and he’s drunk a big bottle of milk..

i want to call toxicity help like but my husband says I’m being unreasonable because ChatGPT and the Crayola website say they’re non-toxic and I’m wasting peoples time when the information is online.

am I being over dramatic haha

Kindly, yes you are

Yes you are.

Nothing to worry about. They’re practically designed for kids to ingest 🤣

Chill. Your child will be one of many who have done this. They are pens for kids. Kids do silly things. That's why they make them non-toxic.

You know what non-toxic means, yes?

He’ll be fine. They’re non toxic and kids will be licking them all the time.

Mine used to eat them ! Blue poo for days

Do you seriously think they would make toxic children's crayons?????

My little one once sucked the scented crayola pen dry! This was about 5 years ago and she's fine. I did stress out though! Xxx

The one’s clearly marked “non-toxic” on the packaging??

*tongue haha

dunno, don’t have the packaging anymore

They are non-toxic, I wouldn’t be worried

Non-toxic means just that.

It's absolutely fine.

But you know what, if it will put your mind at rest give the helpline a call. I bet at least 50% of their calls are anxious parents worrying over nothing. They can put your mind to rest in a sixty second call.

The ones designed for small people to stick up their nose, lick and chew? Yes, you are 100% over-reacting.

They are designed for children, so they won't be poisonous OP

You can Google the product though, right?

Dunno, maybe Google it?

I’m old so when I was at school it was cartridge/ fountain pens all the way….the amount of times we’d chew the cartridges and end up with blue/ black mouths…I mean it tasted disgusting, but was quite a regular occurrence, we’re all still bimberling along in our 50s.
Your little one will be fine, honestly OP, try not to worry.

I'm guessing that this is your first child. Kids will eat far worse and be fine than trying to eat a Crayola felt tip.

given the OP says it's his big sister's pen he licked, you'd be wrong with that guess

Your child will be fine. You may have some interesting nappies. My DD1 once ate a large handful of glitter glue. Fabulous poos for days. She's 24 now and none the worse.

Deep breath, cuppa, relax. Being a first time parent is hard.

Get over it.
