Crap...Crap...Crap

Liam just rolled off of my huge bed...crap Crying I know better than to leave him on there now, and it was literally for 2 seconds while I grabbed his bottle. I heard thud...scream...scream (second scream was me). He's acting fine and quit crying as soon as I picked him up. No bumps, marks...anything. I think it just scared him. He took a pillow w/ him and I think he landed on it. I have a call into the ped, and know what they are going to say...but it makes me feel better to call. Bad mommy this morning...I was in too big of a hurry to get out the door :(

  • I totally know how you feel! Wyatt has fallen off our bed...twice. The first time, he was still sleeping in our bed with us. We called the pedi, and he said to check his eyes for dialation and keep an eye on him. The second time I ran to get an outfit for him for church and my husband went around the corner to grab a diaper. Apparently we both thought the other was watching him.

    wanted to go get a forehead tattoo right then that said worst mother ever! But he was alright. No injuries. We checked him both times all over and checked to see if he could still roll or crawl or whatever after he calmed down.

  • Poor Liam, poor Mommy :(  He will be ok, so will you :)

  • awww poor thing.  I am sure he is ok though!
  • I bet he'll be ok.  We just had this similar occurrence maybe last week?  maybe the week before? (all my days run together.)  Anyway, DH put DS in his carseat on our ottoman without buckling him in and walked away.  DS sat up forward and tipped sideways then fell to the carpeted floor about a 1.5 foot drop.  I actually happened to walk in the room a second after....I walked in to DS lying face-up on the floor with a look of shock and then he screamed/cried......in the second it took me to bolt to him and scoop him up, my brain processed what had actually happened.  I BAWLED and held him so close to me.   I was worse than DS was.

    We called the pedi and they said the same as i expected as well as what you posted.  He's fine.  The emergency line nurse didn't expect that he'd been harmed in the fall and was reassuring.

    Also with you....I kept asking DH, "Are we the worst parents ever!!??"

    I know the terror and guilt you felt.  Accidents happen.  If these are the worst we go throught with our LO's....we're damn lucky!!lol

  • He's totally fine...and I knew he was. It was just stupid of me, and I was more paranoid b/c I didn't actually see it happen, so I didn't know if he hit his head or not...it was a good 2.5 ft fall :( He was over it w/in a few min. though and acting completely normal. He's so banned from my bed though! He's tougher than I am :)
