I Am Pregnant And Accidently Swallowed Metal Bar. Do I Need To Worry ?

I m an 18 year old pregnant female, and today at lunch whilst eating I swallowed the long metal bar and ball from my tongue piercing. I m not sure if I need to be worried but would like some advice as a precaution so I can get help if necessary.

Hi!
If you do not have any problem in swallowing, don't worry, just become relaxed!
This type of small objects can not stuck in your food passage. You are advised to eat Banana. With in 1 to 2 days your metal bar and ball will come out with stool.
Have a speedy recovery!
