I never fell with the babies outside the womb, but I fell with them ALL while I was pregnant with them (except this one). The first time I was in the bathroom at work and fell on some water. I messed up my hip; I still have problems with it! The second I was taking the baby photos at the hospital. We had some snow that turned into ice and bam I fell as I was getting out of the truck and had to twist so would not land on my tummy. Good thing I was at the hospital already. The third time I was walking down the street leaving a holiday party and when I was stepping up on the curb, there was some slushy snow and I fell, but I dropped everything (including a very expensive camera that belonged to my employer)and caught myself as best as I could. I felt bad especially with my first because as a result of the fall, my hip is rotated and she had an injury at birth. I blamed myself for that for a long time, but all is well now. I am glad your little one is alright and it was not your fault! It happens!

Yes I fell w/my son at the bottom of the stairs when he was about 7 months old. He was fine but I landed on my tailbone and it hurt for the next 3 wks.

my SIL slipped down a few stairs with my son when he was probably almost 2 months old. you could tell she did everything she could to protect him (which she did) but my husband started screaming at her (sibling love lol). she started crying and i was trying to comfort her and tell her it was ok, but my husband wouldn`t stop yelling!

omg..i was wearing heels one time, my son was about 5 months. he pooped so i took him to the bathroom in the grocery store to change him (big mistake, should have just changed him in the car,but hubby insisted we go inside). Well, as we were leaving the store i slipped and almost fell with the baby in my arms! good thing there was a door almost right in front of me, so I was able to hold on and not fall. I got so scared! To top it off some jerk in the store was like: `well, nice job wearing those heels!` He was lucky I was in shock, and what he said was the last thing on my mind. Otherwise, I would`ve freaked out on him. Like I don`t already know myself that I shouldn`t wear heels and carry the baby. Instead of helping me to get up, he just stood there being a smart ass!

Actually, funny thing, I had a fall yesterday too! My little one had got kinda behind the table in the corner, and i went to pick her up and as I was stepping backward I tripped on the highchair (you know how their legs always stick out funny). I fell and bruised my foot and my leg (big purple spot on my leg )on the tool box that has been waiting to go back down stairs. My daughter, who is 8-1/2 months old, is totally fine. She gave me one of those, `WTF are you doing? Wierdo...` looks as I limped away. i felt so bad too.

armymom, i laughed until my eyes teared up just now, but only because that reminds me of me, however i`m afraid of all bugs, a moth could have landed near me and i would have been just as freaked out... if not more. kylaleigh, i`m happy you and your baby were okay. i did that last summer when my son was in his car seat and i missed a step, he must have been about 6 or 7 months old and i ended up messing up my shoulder pretty bad, for the second time in 2 months. other then both of us crying we were okay too. :)

One time when I was sitting outside on the porch and holding my 5 month old a wasp flew right by my face. (I`m deathly afraid of flying stinging bugs for no good reason. lol) and I almost threw my son accross the yard to jump up and run. LOL.. Thankfully I thought about what I was doing as I was doing it and caught my poor child! omg, we were both crying!! haha

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
