Given the scary times we’re living in no one is ready to handle “one more” moment of pain or trauma in their lives. It’s only worse if it involves oneself or a loved one.
That is what a 24-year-old mother thought when she discovered a ‘hole’ in the mouth of baby. For a moment, Becky Stiles, from Essex in southeast England, felt her entire world came crumbling down. She panicked and started crying.

“I tried to touch it but he just screamed at me, so I made his dad rush over and see it. I’m shaking, sweating and holding back the tears,” Becky said.

She called her husband to come and check the hole in the mouth of the baby. The toddler wasn’t letting the mother come closer and inspect, LADbible reported. As the woman and her husband tried to figure out what to do next, the woman called her mother who suggested she take the baby to the hospital.

Once the nurses took in baby for examination, they kind of had a sense that the matter wasn’t as serious as it first seemed, especially considering the fact that the little boy didn’t seem to be in any major pain or discomfort.
When the nurses examined the mouth of the little boy more closely they found no hole but “a sticker”. Yes, you heard it right – a sticker. All the while what the young mother believed to be a hole inside the mouth of her son turned out to be a sticker.
When one of the nurses took the sticker out and showed it to the couple, the whole room, full of medical staff, burst out laughing. The couple was relieved no doubt.
