Baby swallowed foam sponge
My baby girl is 1 year 9 months old. I observed she was munching something and just now I saw that she ate foam sponge.
Is this something to be worried.
I just fed her the small banana.
Also I have attached the piece part which she ate.
Please help me..

That's a very small amount of sponge.
Give bananas and most likely it will be passed in the stool.
Keep a watch for abdominal distension and pain.
