I've had a rough few days. On Friday the doctor saw something worrisome on my ultrasound and I'm stuck waiting it out until Tuesday to find out if it's anything. In the meantime, Im worrying anyways because I googled it and really freaked myself out. So, I thought I'd spend a few minutes alone rocking in the baby's room bonding and trying to think positive thoughts. Sat down in the rocker and fell through!
Not a well made rocker to say the least. The cushion is only resting on the frame and the base of the cushion is particle board. I guess it must have been cracked. Fell right through and bruised the backs of my thighs. Thankfully, I found that out now, not later, while holding the baby.
Re: Thank god that happened now, not while I was holding the baby.
Eep! Well I know someone who was rocking their baby on a huge exercise ball (like a yoga/birthing ball) and it popped! And down she fell on her butt (luckily didn't break her tailbone!) with the baby. She was holding him and he was fine. Lesson learned: she told everyone not to ever buy a ball that isn't burst-resistant
