On Friday DD2 ate a button battery, and when we found out we went straight to A&E. She was X-rayed and the battery had made it to her guts which was a good thing - all battery-related deaths seem to be when they get lodged in the throat.
However.... she still hasn't passed it and I'm getting really freaked out. The doc says we just have to wait and it's a bad idea to have another x-ray because of the radiation (Understandably).
Can anyone reassure me that it can take a while for things to pass through? I hate the idea of this thing filed with poisonous heavy metals sitting inside her, rusting away.
She seems ok in herself, a bit clingy. We have been giving her lots of fruit and essence of fig to speed things up so she is doing regular poos. Battery-less poos. Gah.
