Baby ate a bit of paper, not a big deal right?

I am fairly sure that I shouldn't worry about this, but no harm in asking!

DD, 7.5 months, just ate a bit of paper, about 2cm square worth of packaging (not cardboard, but slightly thicker packaging paper). She didn't choke on it (clever DD!) and it's all swallowed). No big deal right? It wii just pass?

Just think of it as a bit of extra roughage Wink

It's fine. They eat much worse & survive !

You will probably spot it when it comes out the other end!

I take it you haven't seen the "my baby ate dog poo" threads then?? Bit of paper will do no harm at all (assuming it wasn't full of staples..)

Thanks everyone!

Oh dear we have plenty of dog and horse poo around (we're not utterly filthy, just live on a farm with loads of animals), so I have all that to look forward to???!

Paper is my 11mo DD's favourite 'food'!
