Well Damien has his first official battle scar. He fell head first onto one of the bottom drawers of the crib. The drawer was open since I was getting toys out and he was sitting in front of it. I didn't catch him in time.
He cried initially but is smiling and playing now. I'm putting a cold washcloth on it periodically for the swelling, which has already gone down a lot. His eye seems to be just fine. It follows movement and such just like the other one and doesn't appear to be hurt. I'm keeping a close watch on it and will take him in if it gets worse or doesn't improve.
Poor guy, I feel so bad. I know how that kind of injury feels and I hate to see him in any pain. Oddly enough, I told myself yesterday that I needed to put a rubber guard on those since he could easily fall onto an open drawer.
