Tell me some crazy things your LO's have eaten/tried to eat so I won't feel so bad about having to call poison control after J ate a handful of mulch and fertilizer mix this afternoon. End result: she spit most of it out and I washed her mouth out, and poison control said that it wasn't a big deal unless it had pesticide or weed killer in it, which it didn't. I always imagined that poison control would be kinda judgmental, but the lady was very nice. J also ate bird poop. And the other day she licked the cart handle at Walmart before I could stop her. Girl is gonna have a great immune system! <head desk>
Most recently, soap. I showed him my soapy fingers after lathering his hair yesterday. He wiped it off and put it in his mouth. Tears followed. Other items of note: lots of sand at the beach, mulch, has licked multiple cart handles and edges of restaurant tables, and a chip off the porch floor at our vacation house-none of us had eaten chips out there nor did we even have chips like that with us. He also really enjoys the dog's Nylabones.

We had to call poison control the other day. She opened a babyganics bug spray bottle with her mouth and had some. There was very little gone and I think most of it was on her. She will eat anything. I have to be really careful.

Our list includes, but is not limited to (I'm pretty sure): Dog food Grass Sand And he tried eating rocks a couple weeks ago at a BBQ, luckily we fished them out before they went down the hatch.
A sticker. He pulled a piece off a leaf of lettuce out of the garden and then after he tried it decided it didn't taste good he tried to put it back. Spoiler: you can't reattach lettuce once you've torn it lol.
Things I've found in her mouth that she didn't swallow: Rocks A metal tack (this one scared me so much) Dog food Small Lego pieces. (I took all DS small Legos away because he leaves them all over the house and I can't keep track of when she puts them in her mouth) Small pieces of colored clay
Things I saw her eat/drink that I couldn't catch in time -A large live black ant (!!!!!) -Some of Hs beer that he accidentally left on the floor(!!!!!) -Sand or dirt

I think we have the same baby. Mine tried to open the bug spray with her mouth and drink it this week too. She got the cap off before I caught her. Hayley also loves using her teeth to pop open the shampoo bottle and drink from it. Blech. We can't leave anything with a cap out.

Dog food is certainly her favourite
Among others:
Pool noodles Her sister's potty Flip flops The net that we use to fish flies out of the kiddie pool In DH's words: "Something on the floor at IKEA. I don't know what it was, but it was pink."

H and J are the same. Seriously everything is done with the teeth now. I joke with SO that she is exactly like my dad, he can open beer bottles with his teeth and weird shit like that(he's a major functioning alcoholic).
We had to call Poison Control already, too. B got ahold of an Airwick, and put the tip in his mouth. It was dried up, so we don't think he got any liquid, but we called PC anyway. Apparently- NBD. We've removed all Airwicks, though.
B has also eaten dirt, sand, put rocks in his mouth, leaves/flowers, any food that has fallen on the floor that I haven't cleaned up yet.... Everything goes in his mouth.

I'm not sure there's anything she hasn't tried to eat...
Her own poop (DH was on diaper duty as I wasn't home) Vinyl scraps (from my silhouette) Mulch Sand Dirt Hairball (thanks for pointing it out kid) Pinecone Cat food Toilet Paper Carboard (attempted) worm
This list could go on and on. It's hard 6o keep things out of her mouth.
