17 month old swallows remote button
I think my 17 month old swallowed a decent sized button off of our amazon fire stick remote. He started coughing and threw up a little, no button came out but the button is gone. He seemed fine after and he's now sleeping. Should I be worried or does he need to go to the hospital?
