First Fall!

Ern fell down from our bed and hit right at the floor this morning. To cut the story short, it was the adult’s fault, obviously. We felt extremely guilty!! :-(

She cried (pain for sure) but when we hold her in our arms, she stopped immediately (phew, thank god!). 10 mins later, she slept soundly and "manja-ly" in my arms.

When she woke up from her nap, she was still as playful as before. Giggling when we played "char" ( peek-a-boo in Hokkien) with her!

Brought her to see paed. No fracture found but just need to monitor her for next 48 hours - no vomit & dizziness!

Let's pray everything is ok for Ern. Poor baby. Hopefully no nightmare for her tonight!

The elderly used to say when a child falls, it symbolizes another growth milestone!

As long as there's no constant crying, swelling and bruises, it should be fine. My bb falls too, we cannot prevent a fall, no matter how ready and we are, just make sure we did all the physically checks after the falls to ensure that's ok and also keep watch for a couple days.
For bb, they cried and then forget all about it, for us, our heart is still 'bleeding and hurt'
