Str8 As (840.4 days ago) 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!
phooey (840.5 days ago) Don`t feel bad, it was an accident, and he`s okay! :0)
happymommee2kj (840.5 days ago) 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.
kohlsmommy (840.6 days ago) 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!
marisha (840.6 days ago) 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!
Dezzi (840.6 days ago) 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.
abbyquiet (840.6 days ago) 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. :)
armymom (840.6 days ago) 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
charlihadley (840.6 days ago) baha..i was wearing heels, my son was three month old in is car seat, i slipped and fell and threw the car seat....car seat landed side ways, and hagen just looked at me...lol..i felt terrible, but he was fine :)!!!!
