PSA: If you don’t know, coin cells are very easy for toddlers to swallow and very deadly in a matter of hours when stomach acid starts breaching it and mixing with the battery chemistry if not promptly treated.

My 11 year old ate a button battery. She threw it up in the X-ray room. We’re still paying the emergency room bill.
…11?
Haha yes. She was playing with it mindlessly while on the computer. She’s always putting stuff in her mouth, like jewelry and coins. And we’ve always taken that stuff away and told her she’s going to swallow it. She may have learned her lesson this time.
Maybe give her fidget toy save to swallow? If not concious fidget, how gonna stop because of lesson?
