During the process of a baby's growth, many accidents can occur. These unexpected occurrences are closely related to the baby's curiosity about the world but lack of sufficient understanding. Many babies do not know what laundry detergent is, which can lead to accidental ingestion. So, what will happen if the baby eats laundry detergent?
Firstly, it is necessary to handle according to the specific amount of laundry detergent that the baby eats. If the baby eats a small amount of laundry detergent, there usually won't be any major problems. You can give your baby more plain water to encourage them to urinate more, which can help drain the laundry detergent they have eaten. Of course, it is also important to observe the baby's mouth to see if there are any residues in the baby's mouth.
Secondly, observe the baby's reaction. If the baby experiences diarrhea, abdominal pain, vomiting, and nausea after eating laundry detergent, this is an abnormal reaction caused by the baby eating laundry detergent. You can give your baby more plain water to drink, and milk can also help speed up the discharge of laundry detergent. Once the baby's abnormal symptoms become severe, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly.
The baby is very young and lacks the ability to distinguish and recognize. Chemical agents such as laundry detergent used by parents should be kept out of reach of the baby to avoid accidental ingestion and reduce the occurrence of accidents. If the baby accidentally eats laundry detergent and the amount is small, parents can handle it themselves.
