    You'll probably pass it when you go #2. I've heard of kids swallowing coins and end up pooping them out. lol
  • yes you will be ok it will pass though you system in a few days so dont worry about it to much

    I used to swallow pennies all the time (I was a dumb child, lol). I wouldn't worry about it.

    I would guess it will just travel south and come on out the other end. :tongue:

    Hee-hee, we spoke to someone last weekend whose dog passed a SPOON they hadn't realised it had eaten! Fear not, a tiny ball will go through quite easily!

    Yeah, it's not going to hurt you at all. It's so tiny you won't even feel it.

    Something that small, and round will just make it's way through your system with no problems (99.999999% of the time) Don't worry about it. Jut make sure your new ball is more secure.

    When I was a kid something similar happened and my poor mom had to squish through my movements until she found it. This way they didn't have to operate on me.

    It should be fine :) People swallow the most unusual things sometimes and it just comes out the other end soon enough.

    THAT was funny,,,, but true. It would only be a problem if it had jagged edges that might get it hung up on something on the way through the body.
  • my advice is the same as all of the othes........to help it out (no pun intended) drink lots of water and eat lots of fibre. No worries though....
  • You lost me at balls........

    Just kidding.....you will be fine!

    Everything flows south, this too will take the same route and you'll never realize it's gone. :smile:

    ya it will come out. I have 4 kids; there have been a lot of things swallowed, including a quarter once. It's small and will not hurt you.

    blessings.
