DD was playing in the louge just before bed and she leant back and must have thought that I was there and I wasnt and she fell straight back and hit her head hard on the rug thats on our floor boards. She screamed and screamed so she was not knocked out and we put a cold face washer on her head and she calmed bown and then she sat on my knee for a while and then she went to bed, I know if you have concussion that its not good to go to sleep but it was bed time and I dont know if its concussion or she was ready fpr bed anyway?
I have been checking on her and she is sleeping fine, breathing and she isnt dazed that I can tell and she hasnt thrown up.
Should I just leave her asleep and keep checking her or should I wake her and check her?
Thanks Trill - yeah and she was megga sleepy before hand and she did get a fright - I could tell by her hysteical crying. I feel terrible - I should have caught her!!
Ill keep checking and if she gets agitated ill get her straight to the ER.
Don't worry too much about it it happens to us all and even if you are right there sometimes you still can't catch them. It's harder on us than it is them too I'm sure LOL.
It probably frightened her more than hurt her. Sometimes when my lot have done something like that and then go to bed not long after I think it's from all the crying and the fright they got that makes them tired, not so much the knock to the head kwim? Just keep checking on her every now and then and see how she goes and if you get worried, call the nurse hotline # and see what they think.
Hit her head HARD...
