A Scary Moment

We had a small scare today.  I had finished pumping, with Dani to my side, and as I turned to put the milk on the table Chris happened to look over and see that Dani was sucking on the tubing for the pump that she stole while I had my back turned for just a moment.  We took it away and noticed that the end nozzle piece was missing. 



Dani had a tiny cough, I looked at her desperate to see if it fell out of her mouth. Nothing.  I poked my finger around her mouth, desperate that it would fall out of a cheek.  Nothing.    We searched and there was no luck finding it.  Finally, I accepted the fact that she probably ate the tiny plastic thingy.   I asked Chris what I should do, and we conceded that we needed help, so we called Holly, the all-knowing-of-kid-things sister.  After discussing that it was likely that we just needed to wait for it to pass and to maybe contact the nurse hotline to ask a few questions, I had a plan.

Before I was even off the phone Chris was asking if I checked something...trying to eagerly listen to Holly's advice I shushed him.  As soon as I was off the phone he starts talking again, "have you checked the bottle part?".  What?  The bottle pa....OH, that part.  You have got to me sh!ttin' me, it was right there.  Crisis adverted.  So thankful!
