Babies: 9 - 12 Months

DD fell down the stairs today

It's hard for me to even type those words! She's completely fine. She only cried for about 30 seconds but I still rushed her to the doctor - he looked her all over and just said to check on her a couple times tonight to make sure she's arrousable. I just can't believe I let this happen. It's completely my fault and it still makes me sick to my stomach.

She crawled out of the room to chase the kitty. I was too lazy to get up and go after her right away. The basement door was right across the hall and I didn't realize it was open. The next thing I know I heard her falling. THE MOST HORRIBLE SOUND IMAGINABLE. She cried instantly and didn't lose consciousness. In fact, she cries harder when she gets a shot. But I just couldn't believe she was okay after that so I took her in right away.

Ah anyway, I'm babbling. I will never let her out of my sight again!

  • Scary... glad she is okay.  I bet you will never leave that door open again though.

  • I am sorry that happened and I don't want to make you feel worse, but "I was too lazy to get up and go after her right away.'  My goodness!

     

  • This is my biggest fear.... ?DS fell off of my bed once, I looked away to pull my pants up and BOOM! ?We rushed him to the ER and he was fine but it scared me to death. ?

    I hope tonight goes well for you - GOOD LUCK! ??

    She thought the door was closed. She didn't know that it was open. I'm sure if it was she would of jumped up sooner.

  • Oh no!  That's a horrible scare - sounds like she's okay though - thank goodness!

  • I'm sorry this happened!  It is a terrible feeling.  My DS fell off the couch a couple of weeks ago.  He was totally fine and only cried for about 10 seconds, but I cried on and off all day.  Good luck tonight.

  • Ugh.  So glad she is okay.  About 2 weeks ago I was holding my LO up on his changing table and I lost my grip on him (he was standing) and he fell backwards and hit is head on the side.  It was so AWFUL.  I was so disappointed in myself and upset (even though he was fine).  These things happen...hang in there.
