They are sure to take a few tumbles, and some you cant prevent. I watched over DS like a hawk when he was at this stage, luckily most of the time he landed on his bum. But I was there usually to catch his fall. Even when watching them you cant catch them every time they fall so dont feel bad. They are robust little creatures.
I moved alot of things out of the family room that he could potentially hurt himself on when he started walking. Manily things he could pull onto himself. We have been lucky, he has had no accidents with the walking stage yet! So it does get easier and you will be able to relax a litte more soon!
