Hurt

Has anyone hurt the child by mistake, this morning I fell down the stairs (which are very steep and dropped the baby so far down. Feel awful and so guilty. He has been checked over and he literally hasn’t got anything wrong with him even tho he this the wall at the bottom and then the floor. I’ve come out with broken ribs and bruised toe. But he is literally unharmed. All I can think of when I think of him is him flying out my arms. Feel like I can never get over this. Anyone got any advice on how to make yourself feel better x

Today my baby fell off the sofa it was horrible I literally cried as I could hear her making crying sounds I’ve never heard before in pain 😭😭 I was in the kitchen whilst my husband was in the lounge supervising but it literally happened so quick but she’s fine - these things happen and it doesn’t make us bad mums at all! I’m glad your baby is okay and I hope you recover soon 🩷

So glad it’s not just me the baby screamed straight away, I was literally screaming to my partner I didn’t know what to do as I couldn’t move as I’d winded myself xx

Not this baby, but with my 3 year old, I slipped on holiday and dropped him when he was 18 months old. Thankfully his bum took most of the impact but he did hit his head. I felt terrible and he screamed for a bit, but he was absolutely fine afterwards. It was so so scary, but these things happen, it was a total fluke, and hasn’t happened since. And he’s absolutely fine (I broke a toe!). Sending you lots of love mama, because it’s so easy to feel guilty and blame ourselves. Glad you’re both okay x

It’s so horrible I was literally screaming for my partner as he was in bed, everywhere hurts but I didn’t even care about myself only cared about him. The only reason I came down when I did is because I didn’t have any nappies upstairs which I always have. I think that’s what annoyed me. He’s acc smiled so much more today than he ever has so clearly not affected in any way xx

Look how happy he is it’s one of his first time laughing properly xx

I fell down the stairs in a museum omve with my boy in my arms. Miraculously, i didn't drop him at all , but i inusred myself pretty badly. I lost sleep over it for months replaying it in my head and what could have happened. It does fade away eventually x

I tripped down the stairs in a restaurant when my girl was 3/4 weeks old so still absolutely tiny. I managed to land in a lunge and not drop her at all but I was so upset and I thought about it for weeks, every time I closed my eyes I saw myself flinging or falling on her. It's so so horrible but don't be hard on yourself - he's fine and it's happened to the best of us ❤️
