Usually it’s not harmful as it passed out with stools in a day or two .. but u should get an X-ray done to confirm the location and watch the stools of ur baby weather she passed out or not ..in case of pain abdomain or distension or vomiting u should consult paediatric surgeon or gastrointestinal surgeon immediately
