She looks innocent, but last week, while safely in her carseat, she bit her ear mold off the processor, chewed and swallowed. John nearly swerved off the road to stop the horror, but too late. She smugly pointed down her throat when his search proved fruitless (or ear mold-less).
After much discussion about what an ear mold is, her doctor’s office said that this is small potatoes in the world of swallowed objects and all systems are go, although I’ve not verified categorically that the ear mold has moved on. I take that on faith.
I’ve failed a critical mom test, haven’t I?

*laughing* no kidding! I think that makes 2 failed tests: seems I’m not managing what’s going in OR what’s coming out

OH NO!! Sneaky little girl!!! My Ellie swallowed a penny a couple of years ago…on purpose. We went to the ER and had her X-rayed and the doc said it was on its way out and not to stress. I never did find it, so a week later we went back for ANOTHER X-ray, and it was gone. What an expensive penny!
If this is the worst failing you ever have as a mom, you’ll be my hero, dear!!
I think I’m more and more grateful that I’m the one that’s deaf and not my kids. I can barely keep up with all my stuff…I can’t imagine keeping up with theirs!

Oh my, what a gal! I hear if they are active as a child then teenager years are easy!
Did she like the taste? I hope not so she don’t do it again.
Jenna hasn’t swallowed anything, I think! thinking maybe that is why I can’t find my watch!!!!
