My son swallowed a small lego piece. he is not showing any discomfort or chocking. seems fine. do i need to worry?

Not really: If he can drink any fluids now you know it made it to the stomach. Now you have a 3-4 day wait until it passes through to the other end. I would ignore the event and focus on the events you can control.
