3mo fell from bed while sleeping ):

Hi everyone… it was around 5am when i heard a loud thud and woke up suddenly only to realise i was screaming as i knew that my 3mo had fallen from bed. She was sleeping with my husband and my husband was hugging her but they were at the corner of the bed… The reason why she sleeps with us is because she won’t sleep with on her own in her cot/bassinet. I feel really awful… checked for any bruises or anything but there was nothing… husband said she was on the floor body down but head was turned sideways… i feel like it’s my fault for not taking the extra precautions and i feel like a bad mother… Wanted to bring her to the doctors to see if there’s anything wrong but husband said to just observe… I’m so tired, scared and worried. Any advice would be great… #advicepls #firstbaby

Don’t beat yourself over it. My boy fell off while crawling on a park bench when he was 7mo cos I was was too busy taking photos of him and didn’t notice him going too close to the edge. He cried in pain for 3 mins and I cried out of guilt for the next 3 hours. Think husband had a harder time calming me down. Our boy is 3yo now and he’s a completely normal threenager. My friends also had accidents like closing the door on baby’s hand etc. Stuff happens. Guilt is normal. We learn from it and we get better. 🤪💪🏽 Hope your lil one is all good now! As long as no vomiting, eats and sleeps normally, should be ok!
