Swallowed an eggshell—is it dangerous?

Hey everyone, first off, my bad if I posted this in the wrong sub—mod, feel free to move this wherever it belongs!

So, here's the deal... I was whipping up some pancakes for myself and my girlfriend, and then while I was cleaning up the dishes, I spotted these tiny little bits of eggshell sitting at the bottom of the pan.😢 Man, I straight up broke out in a cold sweat right then and there.😲

Anyway, I wanted to check in and see if I actually have a reason to freak out here? Is there any chance this could cause some kind of trouble?

Thanks!

you made pancakes and even did the dishes 😲
man, any girl would be lucky to have you 😁
are you sure someone actually swallowed a shell if you didn't feel it? they probably just sank to the bottom of the pan so you didn't scoop them up... no reason to freak out.
even if they did eat it, it'll pass through 😛

Man, who wouldn't want you? Seriously! 😁

Mickey Mouse knows I can handle just about anything thrown my way! 😁

Look, even if they actually went ahead and ate it, you’ll just end up tossing it out anyway—no biggie. 😛

I’m 100% positive I didn't miss anything because they were seriously tiny—like, you wouldn't even feel them if they were there. Honestly, I probably just overlooked a little shard of shell, which I thought I had totally pulverized with the blender anyway. 😕

Don't sweat it, you basically just got an extra calcium supplement 😉

The shells on eggs these days seem to be of such poor quality. Every time I try to make sunny-side up eggs, I find myself having to fish out little shards from the pan.

Phew, I'm feeling a whole lot better already 😁 Thanks so much, everyone 🙂

What on earth were you thinking, man? You thought you could just breeze through this with a few tiny flakes? 😁

Every single time I turn around, another piece falls off. We’re still breathing and we're already falling apart! 😁
