Fall 😓😓

Baby is 6.5 months. Do I need to take her to hospital to be checked? She fell off the bed backwards. I picked her up straight away checked for marks, her arms legs are moving fine. No redness anywhere on her body how? She stopped crying after about 20 seconds, seems fine crawling, climbing smiling, blowing raspberries and picking up putting down toys. Fcks sake! I know it happens all the time, but damn the guilt. I feel like a total prat!

It happens to most babies! As long as baby showing no signs of distress should be ok! Xx

If you’re worried you can call 111 if you’re in the UK and they’ll advise you on what to do x

I did the same off the sofa few weeks back at same age, he was fine but I was a mess! Didn't take him to hospital, he cried but quickly calmed down so I gathered no issues x

This happened to my baby when she was only about 4 months. She cried for a long time and her nose quickly got swollen and bruised so I took her to A&E to be safe. Every nurse I spoke to said it happens to almost everyone so don’t beat yourself up about it! If she seems completely fine I wouldn’t worry too much ❤️

Thanks girls, she has been fine all day thankfully! Spoke to my husband straight after and felt so much better after a good cry and his reassuring words. I think I worked myself up even more because I kept rewatching the footage on my baby cam am I insane who does that lmao. My poor squish splat on the ground 😭
