This morning my baby opened up the bathroom garbage can and sucked on a used suppository. There was actual feces and fluid in it. I feel like the worst mother ever! We even have a lock on that garbage can, but someone forgot to lock it!!

changed a dirty diaper and left it on the bed in a wrapped up chucks for a minute or so while I had to attend to something else. I come back and find my daughter in her crib having a party and a 'painted' crib. she somehow moved the crib over and helped herself to the stuff from the bed.
I was freaking out because I have a sis on the spectrum and I remember when she did this (as an older kid though) and the tears and hysteria from my mom.
I was consoled though hearing that lots of neuro-typical kids do it also at some point as part of exploration.

Not gross, but traumatic for me. She ate her earring.

My brother drank invisible ink when he was little. He also ate fish food once. Confused

The worst? A sharp piece of a plastic cup he bit off. (He was fine but scared me silly!)

The funniest? He took a chunk out of a book called “Yummy Yucky.”

DD drinking from the hamsters water bottle. She got it off the cage and was sucking it like a bottle. I was grossed out for a long time (and still am when I think of it)

A tiny pc of plastic she bit off. Chocked on it. Was fine my the time hatzola arrived!

My sister's kids would "paint" their dirty diaper before she'd get to their crib in the morning (5 or 6 am).... she'd cry while cleaning up....

I'm seriously grossed out. Feces in the mouth. Yuck!!!!
Kids are crazy! They get into the craziest things. Gosh. WHAT ARE THEY THINKING??? I'd probably vomit (I'm close to it now.) if I saw a kid do it.

How did you clean them up?

If this is recent and consistent behavior, you should look into PICA (iron deficiency).

My friend and I saw a toddler pop a large black ant in his mouth in the country. He was so quick about the whole thing it was over before we got to him. We were in shock. We didn't want to tell his mother because we thought she'd have a heart attack. The two of us stalked him all day following him around and finding excuses to visit his bungalow. We kept anxiously checking on him but from the moment he swallowed that gross insect his breathing, color and behavior were perfectly fine. He grew into a normal healthy child. His mother is none the wiser. The two of us still shudder when his name comes up.

This is edible so I'm not sure if it counts but I'm sharing it anyway. My dd got diagnosed with an allergy to milk when she was 18 months. She loved yoghurt so whenever I didn't see she would go searching in the garbage can for empty containers and lick them out Rolling Eyes

Fried gefilte fish. Before you start yelling that its a food, it is NOT!

My inlaws got a surprise visit from them on a Sunday, so MIL took leftover gefilte fish from the fridge and fried it! My kids almost choked and died on it. Hello! Its 2018! Give them scrambled eggs! Give them American cheese.

Living in Monsey is not an excuse!
