i feel awful

[Becky&Willow]

i went to mother and baby group today and when i was getting ready to leave i put willow on a bean bag but i can have put her on there properly because as i was getting my bags ready she fell off and landed on her face she cried for about a minute and then seemed fine i gave her some calpol when we got in and now she is having her nap but i just feel so bad ths is the first time anything like this has happend and i know it wll happen more as soon as she can sit up / walk but i just feel sick with it.

im not going to say im a rubbish mummy as im not but god i feel awful

aww try not 2 feel awful. i kno how u feel tho, when millie was a few days old i tipped the moses basket and she rolled out of it on2 the floor (carpet thankfully!) it just made me more vigilant now tho, so a positive came of it!

So sorry to hear what happened and it making you so upset, but that's because your such a good Mummy, otherwise you'd not be upset Willow is fine, so I hope you feel better soon, as others have said, most Mummy's find themselves in similar situations Myself included, when Isaac was about 6wks I was adjusting his cot light show toy and it fell onto his face I cried and he cried and he was fine and I wasn't for a long time they are certainly hardier than we give them credit for these babies

Lots of hugs
If it makes you feel better, it happens to us all - i think my boo boo with my eldest, Jessica, was much worse than any of yours. She must have been around eight or nine months and I had put her on my shoulders, which she loved and was bouncing her and playing as i walked around the flat, not realising that there was a LOW DOORWAY You can imagine - she banged her forehead so bad that i took her to the emergency ward, she screamed for ages and i had to keep her awake for something like three hours to make sure there was no concussion - not fun trying to keep a sleepy baby awake at nap time (she ¡s now fifteen, and theoretically unaffected by this, although the way she behaves sometimes... )
I felt i was the worst mom in the world and still kick myself for that one!!!
