It happens to every one at least once! (I dropped the t.v. remote on LO's head at around 2 weeks . . . :/). </p> <p>IMO, this is the same kind of situation as divers and having to pee . . . There are two kinds of people in this world, those who pee in their wetsuits (drop/bump their babes), and those who lie about it! :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959691 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 13:33:16 +0000 lovehoneybee 959691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh, big hugs! E once face-planted from 2.5-3' up, onto hardwood. The RN nurse on-call wanted me to get him x-rayed. He was fine after a minute or two, I was a hot crying mess for hours. DH had to come home from work because I was such a mess. He had the indentation of the wood corner on his forehead! </p> <p>They told me to keep an eye on his pupils (if they were different sizes or not changing sizes), his behavior (if he was really lethargic) and to bring him in if he started to throw up. But he was fine, your LO will be too!! Babies are much more durable that we tend to think!</p> <p>Big hugs Mama! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959624 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 13:16:35 +0000 cascademom 959624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hugs, it happens to everyone as first timers. It's scary as hell, but babies fall and get squirmy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959606 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 13:14:03 +0000 autumnlove 959606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LazyLightning: So sorry! She will be fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959591 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 13:11:37 +0000 Vegmama 959591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LazyLightning: She is PRECIOUS! I love her lashes &amp; eyebrows!! Don't worry mama, I'm sure she'll be just fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959522 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:56:19 +0000 mamabolt 959522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awww hugs! I let LO fall off the bed when she was 7 months old about 2.5/3 ft. And DH cracked her head on the side of the bed the day we brought her home from the hospital. These things happen! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959484 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:48:09 +0000 Tidybee 959484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LazyLightning: If it makes you feel any better, my DD rolled off the bed while I was getting ready, so I'm really beating myself up. Unfortunately, I doubt this will be the last time accidents will happen. We should go easy on ourselves. I treated myself to a cup of tea and a chocolate chip cookie after lunch today. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959480 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:46:42 +0000 LazyLightning 959480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tidybee: I'm still sniffly and she is napping after a bottle. So yes!! Tougher on us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959472 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:45:18 +0000 Tidybee 959472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did the same thing this morning!! DD was fine...I cried for an hour. It's so much tougher on us than them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959470 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:45:11 +0000 jmarionsmith 959470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LazyLightning: awww she looks so peaceful! i'm sure she's long forgotten the accident. she knows mommy loves her!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959455 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:41:54 +0000 LazyLightning 959455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor baby with a bump on her head. </p> [attach=233/13/mqgbtw.450x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959431 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:37:38 +0000 Boheme 959431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no, I'm sure you are so worried!

Hugs! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959303 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:18:02 +0000 MamaMoose 959303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh mama, I know the feeling. My LO recently faceplanted out of her rocker. Scared the crap out of me but she cried for two minutes and went back to playing. Just keep an eye on your LO to make sure her eyes are focusing and things like that. I'm sure she's fine and has already forgotten about it : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959261 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:07:58 +0000 dolphin 959261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no! That IS the worst feeling ever. LO rolled off the bed and I was kicking myself for it. I just felt SICK to the stomach. But just know that your LO IS okay! Accidents happen and your baby is a strong cookie! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959252 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:05:06 +0000 Smurfette 959252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aww! It is ok, accidents happen. I am she will be back to giving you a hard time in no time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959228 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 11:58:43 +0000 rrachael 959228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>&lt;3 I know exactly how you're feeling :(. Just keep an eye on her behavior ... babies are tougher than we think!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959226 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 11:58:28 +0000 Dandelion 959226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no! I know that's scary! Don't worry, though...babies are more durable than they look!</p> <p>DS fell off the bed when he was a baby, before he could roll over or crawl. I put him on it for just a second to get something on the other side of the room and suddenly my non-mobile baby got mobile and scooted right down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959223 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 11:57:43 +0000 Adira 959223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awww, it's okay, accidents happen! I'm sure your baby will be okay! My husband was dropped a lot further was a baby - his dad was trying to hold him and the groceries and everything just went wrong so what did he do? He decided to rescue the groceries!!</p> <p>Also, I basically flung my baby away from me once because a spider was crawling on me. Worst parenting moment EVER, but Xander seems fine. At least we can be rest assured that at this age, they won't remember all the mistakes we make! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959220 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 11:55:51 +0000 travellingbee 959220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh I am so so sorry! THat is a horrible feeling. I almost dropped Lukas when he was about that age and it freaked me out! I'm sure you're more shaken than her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959218 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 11:55:13 +0000 LuLu Mom 959218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Accidents happen momma, you can't beat yourself up about it. Luckily she's so young she won't remember it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959214 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 11:54:44 +0000 littlek 959214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh that's rough. I'm sure your LO will be okay. If it makes you feel better, DH was holding LO and he started to squirm and LO hit the door frame HARD and I freaked out and called the pediatrician. He was okay, but man, talk about scary!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959205 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 11:53:58 +0000 swedishfish 959205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was an accident so don't beat yourself up over it. I'm sure she is ok and has already forgotten about it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dropped-my-8-week-old-2-on-hardwood-on-her-face#post-959189 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 11:50:47 +0000 LazyLightning 959189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Worst morning ever.</p> <p>I was trying to burp my increasingly squirmy baby and she shifted, I lost grip, and she face planted off my lap on to the hardwood floor. She landed with a thud, was silent for 2 seconds, then screamed. Now she has a red mark on her head.</p> <p>I called the ped and they said to just watch her behavior... She is napping now.. I can't believe I did this. I am so mad, worried, and horrified. </p>
