Question

While feeding the baby, accidentally inhaled chopped celery leaves, causing coughing. Worry about whether a foreign object has entered the trachea and why coughing occurred again during the second feeding.

Answer

Based on the described situation, the infant may have accidentally inhaled celery leaves during the second feeding, leading to coughing. However, infants can cough up foreign objects on their own and if no other symptoms have appeared, there should be no major concern. If worried, it is advisable to visit a pediatric hospital for a check-up. In general, it is recommended to provide infants with easily digestible fluids and avoid giving them irritating food.
