Daughter run off chomping on a dirty toy

That’s the toddler life I’m afraid! Hopefully she won’t get ill but don’t feel guilty about it, these things happen! I’m sure she’ll be absolutely fine. ☺️

If it helps, my baby went quiet in his car seat and I assumed he was sleeping. Turns out he was just literally eating the paint colour chart I’d picked up from b&q 🤦🏼‍♀️😫😆

I can laugh about it now but I felt terrible when it happened. But after speaking to so many other mums everyone’s had an experience and of course he was absolutely fine! You can only do what you can do and I’m sure you’re doing amazing keeping her safe 💙

It's disgusting but it's fine 🤣 I would have had the same split second reaction but I've trained myself out of it.
Things like that will help build her immune system and whilst the thought of her chewing a well used toy might feel disgusting there is nothing to say there are any dangerous germs on it. It would be a different matter if it was a carpet or something that's walked all over with people's shoes but I think things which have been handled are different. That's how my brain works anyway 🤣

My 2.5 year old keeps bringing me green flies off his slide to give to me, 4 times now before I’ve had chance to take them from him he’s eaten them🤣

My 13 month old I know not really a toddler yet. But she likes to try to eat dog food. She is raised with dogs so yea.. She doesn't understand kissing but she will crawl up to you and lick you🙄

Mt daughter loves to help feed the cats, she got a bit of cat food on her hand yesterday and licked it off. Gross but, what can you do?

My 14 month old loves to put rocks, dirt, and mulch in his mouth. He’s frequently putting toys in his mouth especially if he’s teething. Germs happen. See if they have a yuck bucket for toys that have been slobbered on

The joys of children unfortunately! However in the long run, exposure to germs will be better for her immune system. My son is 2.5 years old and a couple of months ago he licked the glass door panel of his nursery door 🤮 right where all the other children’s grubby hands touch repeatedly through the day. So gross but thankfully he hasn’t done it again… yet🤣

My 2 year old has been caught licking the supermarket floor 🫠 on multiple occasions. Bus hand rails are another thing she likes to chomp down on

Thanks everyone I think it was my instant reaction to thinking, oh my god how many people will have touched that dirty bean bag over a hot bank holiday weekend. I guess I just felt like maybe I should have my eyes peeled better but she’s a law in herself at the moment and is a real cheeky monkey. She thinks she’s just playing and having fun but in reality she’s doing the most unhygienic things and she does it so fast it just happens 😂🙄😂🙄

Mine sometimes chews on cafe tables 😭
