FLIPPING HECK HELP!!!

[MamaGLovesMe]

DS2 age 3 has potentially eaten some bean bag filling.

is it poisonous?

as if our day couldn't get any worse.

how much did he eat?

Is it the little polystyrene balls?

DOn't think they are poisonous, but not sure.
Can you call NHS 24 and ask?

doubt they are poisonous, think polystyrene is fairly inert. call NH S direct, but don;t panic

I doubt it was many.

DH said he will poo them out and doesn't seem concerned.

My head is about to explode and am not in fit state to know what I am doing.

This website says:

Expanded polystyrene- It is safe to manage this problem yourself at home. These substances are not usually dangerous when they are taken accidentally.

Do not try to make the person sick as it will make the worse. Give them small sips of milk or water if they can swallow properly. Stay calm.

If they have swallowed a large amount or if you are worried about any symptoms they have, call NHS 24.

Otherwise watch them carefully for the next four hours and care for them at home.

Thank you

why you in such a state?

His poo will float

no, you are thinking of mamag, fio.. this is not mamag... confusing, non?

what's up? why ?

i think they will pass through ok. dont panic, it should be just fine esp as it was only a few. its not like he swallowed half the bean bag

as can't have more kids.

My head is pounding, I am on the verge of tears. DH was meant to have 2 weeks off, went to a work meeting and has to work now.

No holiday, no time off, might not be paid next month.

oh you poor poor thing. what has suddenly made you think about no more babies?

re DH;s work. is there any chance of any time off? maybe 5 days rather than 2 weeks? if things very tight, he might need to hang on in there.

school hols stressful enough i find, without any thing else on top

As long as he hasnt jammed any up his nose or in his ears then he'll be fine.

Lulu I think it was when Fio mixed her up, prob touched a nerve
I keep mixing her up as well Fio!

i have known for a while I can't have any more and seeing about me having a bun in the oven just made me feel

It is MamaG's fault, she said to have this name!!

No chance of any time off for DH. He might not even get paid for what he is doing never mind compensation holiday pay. [hugely worried emoticon]

i see. time for a new name? i thikn lots of families are going through very stressful financial circs at the moment.. i know that does not help much though.

Stressful isn't the word. He might not get paid next month. Full stop.

don;t know what to say. is that a possible short term issue? or a sign of things to come?

Who knows

Company might go down the toilet.

dd2, aged 2, ate a few a little while back and they came out in her poo, intact and still white

i am sorry, wish i could do something. x
