mine have eaten bananas - peel and all, tootsie rolls without unwrapping, those dot candies on the strips of paper- including the paper. candy kisses still wrapped in foil. tried to chew the fake candy garland on christmas trees, then complained it tasted yucky - DUH !!
some times too big a chunk of plastic will make them choke but other then that i wouldnt worry too much.

Not this time. If your child did not choke then the wrapper should be eliminated without a problem. However, I hope you will take care to keep this from happening again because you don't want anything bad to happen to your baby.

I think he will be fine. Just check his poop over the next few days to see if you notice it passing. My brother ate a penny when he was little once and I ate a long jewelry chain. It all passed.

Nope, not since he already ate it. Like the other person said, you are lucky he didn't choke!!

No. It will be digested eventualy. Just be thankful he didnt choke on the plastic.

Why were you not watching her/him? It will digest fine and come out eventually. Plastic is not easy to digest, you know? The child will be just fine. No worries.... keep your eye on the child 24/7!!!

No, I wouldn't be worried it will all come out. :) My 3 year old ate a penny, I freaked!! I called his pediatrician and she said not to worry it will come out. It did and he is fine. You have a funny story to embarrass him/her with when he/she is older.
