Hi generally any foreign body wether its pin or coin passes through motion after 1 -2 days. You need to get checked if you develop any sort of pain abdomen / vomiting. You can take bulk food like banana.
Don't be so apprehensive to search daily in your stool. This also depends upon size of pin. Take care
