A member asked:

I found a worm coming out of the blackberries my 2 year old was eating. should i be worried and take her to the doctor? i'm not sure if she ate one

Not particularly: In prehistoric times these were considered just another source of nutrition.If you can get beyond the scary factor it has little importance. Your 2 year old uses their sense of taste to explore the world. It is not unusual for them to consume pet food from a dish, eat bugs, or lint off the floor. If you won't sleep until she's checked take her during regular hours, but I wouldn't bother.
