Oh hun accidents happen and I am so glad that she appears to be fine, it is horrible when they take a tumble like that how are your nerves now?

DD has gone down one or two steps but not that many, she is very good at going up and down them, but we watch her all the time, unless she has done a runner for them and we don't see, we have a door between them and the living area that we can shut so she can't get to them.

We have a gate at the top, just so that if she is wandering around in the mornings when we are getting ready for work, or in the evenings we know she is safe. The gates are a bit of a PITA, but I guess a bit of piece of mind.

DD did the same with her tall bay, early morning start I was napping on her floor while I thought she was playing, only to find that she had opened the bottom drawer and then the second drawer and was sitting it it opening the third drawer I freaked out as I was right next to her
