Carter fell off the changing table *updated in OP

[creamsiclechica]

We're on our way to the ER. I was out running and it happened 15 minutes before I got home. His pupils look okay, he was screaming, but his back and head seem okay to the touch. He nursed, but whenever I put him down on his back he screams. I am trying not to freak out until we know anything. He's sleeping now in the car which worries me. Thoughts and prayers please. Also remind me that accidents happen and not to resent my husband for this because I am so upset right now I can't think straight.

X-rays came back totally fine so they let us go home!! Thank you all for your sweet comments and prayers. You're all right too. I didn't get angry with Matt, I told him accidents happen, it could have been me easily, and that he is the best father ever. He is so torn up. I feel bad. He would kill me for saying this, but I saw tears in his eyes, and he doesn't EVER cry or get emotional like that. So hopefully he'll start to feel better about it

Oh hunny. I am so so sorry. I am sure everything is fine but I'm sending up prayers.

Aww! Poor Carter! As scary as it is, it happens to everyone at least once.

[sallyowens]

Big hugs, mama! That's so scary, but I'm sure he'll be fine. Better to get him checked out for peace of mind.

[imimahoney]

Aww poor guy. I'm sure he is fine!! Update when you can. Hugs!

Oh no! I hope everything is okay.

Happens to all of us unfortunately. I have fallen while holding both kids, both have tumbled off the couch, Max went off the changing table while my H had him...luckily babies are resilient.

ETA big hugs. I know how scary it is.

[whodey]

Sending good thoughts...I hope everything is ok...kids are tough...

Truth. It's scary, but I bet the majority of us have been there. Keep us updated please!

[kdrake8]

Deep breaths. I love you. He will be ok! Update us.

[TrudyCampbell]

Oh gosh, I'm so sorry! These things happen but it's so scary. I hope he's okay!! Update when you can <3

[Deleted]

Oh no!! You poor thing! Please update us when you find anything out, I truly hope he is okay!!!

Lots of prayers for you and Carter.  He will be fine, but it is always good to have a doctor take a look.

Once when my H was on G duty he turned away and G rolled off the ottoman onto the floor, he was about 4 months old.  G screamed like a banshee, then nursed and was fine.  I dont know if my H has recovered yet, he still beats himself up over it.  I was furious at him, but also so relieved that it happened on his watch and not mine, because at least I didn't have to feel the guilt and blame.  Accidents happen all the time and to everyone.  It's ok to be angry and scared and resentful right now, but I promise you your H feels like shit about this.

I hope your trip to the ER is quick and painless and Carter is back to being happy and his normal self in no time.

Hugs!! I'm so sorry, that sounds stressful - but it happens! My friend used to say that babies are bouncy Sounds ridiculous but it's totally true. Hope he just has a minor owie and it's nbd.

Sending good thoughts! I'm sure he'll be fine...It's happened to the best of us and I know how scary it is. Please keep us updated!

[jalapenopeach]

I am so sorry! Lots of T&Ps that Carter is just fine! This happens to so many people, so try not to be too hard on your H. I'm sure he feels terrible. Although, I'd have a hard time taking that advice myself!

[heyjojo]

Oh my gosh, how frightening! I'm sure he will be just fine, babies are very resilient, and this could have (and has) happened to any one of us. Try to remain calm, many good thoughts to you guys <3

[rxbeth]

Hugs. I hope they give him a quick, clean bill of health. Try not to be too hard on your husband. Just picture him in his uniform.

[alicia45]
