What would probably happen if a baby ate a rock?

Uhm.. I was at someone’s house and she left her baby outside alone and when I found her she was choking on a rock D: I got it out but them I got to wondering… It was kinda sharp too D:

Answer #1

Well she didn’t eat it… She choked on it. Babies are pretty durable, but if it was sharp and you think it could have cut her you should let the mother know what happened.

Answer #2

Oh.. I did :)

Answer #3

If the rock is big, I’m guessing he could not swallow it, but if it’s pointy it could cause internal injouries (sorry for the spelling) If it was small and round I’m not very sure, but it could be disolved by the stomachs acids, if the rock is made of harder material, it could be bad, in my opinion if a baby eats a rock it should be taken to a hospital - heck anyone should be taken to a hospital

Answer #4

Well then you did all you could. At least you were there to get the rock out of the poor little girl’s mouth.

Answer #5

I would seriously consider calling child welfare on this one - that baby could have died if you weren’t there.

Answer #6

it will probably poop it out or just womit :/

Answer #7

don’t over react. little kids put things in their mouth all the time, it’s what they do. Their just testing all of their senses on the new object they discovered. It’s also how they learn what not to put in their mouth.

Answer #8

Did you even read her question? Specifically the part that says “she left her baby outside alone” … I don’t think that’s an overreaction at all - no baby should be left unattended outside.

Answer #9

Hmm… Well I told my parents and her parents. They all said she’d be fine..
