I was helping my nephew wash his hands when I turned around and saw my 1 year old niece putting a piece of soap in her mouth. It was a sulfur soap not sure what it was doing on the floor because its not my bathroom. She literally had it for about 2 seconds & didn't even bite it. I rinsed her mouth & gave her a bottle of milk. She should fine right? She's not throwing up or anything. I can't make calls right now but I sent her mom a message.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thanks you all! She was fine. I tend to be paranoid when it comes to stuff like this. I do have the number for poison control actually but I was having issues with my phone..

I doubt you have anything to worry about. But when in doubt call poison control. If nothing else, it will give you piece of mind.1-800-222-1222

Nothing wrong with a little soap in the mouth. More kids need it more often.

Make the time to make an important phone call to poison control. You should keep it programmed on your cell phone. When in doubt call poison control! If nothing else, it will give you piece of mind that you did the right thing. 1-800-222-1222 It is better to BE SAFE, THAN BE SORRY!

Sulfur used to be used as an antibiotic (WWII). It's not a poison.

She's fine. She tasted it and was done.

She'd have to eat an awful lot of soap to do any damage.

It doesn't taste good, so I'm sure she's fine.

If she's not vomiting or acting funny, I'm sure you have nothing to worry about.

It may give her the runs but I didn't think it will hurt her.
