Mother of the effing year :(

[imimahoney]

Corinne fell out of her bouncy this morning while I was in the shower. She smacked her mouth on the tub and there was so much blood.

Brought her to the pedi, no head trauma, she seems fine but of course watch her.

Omg, I am horrible. Her lip is swollen and I feel so terrible. She seems fine now, thank godx but still.

WTF is wrong with me

[Faevantastic]

Awww, don't be so hard on yourself. Glad she's ok. Hugs!

[dbe100408]

I'm so sorry! You are both going to be fine. Don't beat yourself up. Hugs!!

[charlielove]

Accidents happen! Don't be so hard on yourself. I'm glad she is doing ok.

[bean47]

Oh no I'm glad she is okay. There is nothing wrong with you, these things happen all the time.

[chirpchirp]

Sorry shower time is so tricky. You'll both be ok!

[imimahoney]

Thanks all. I appreciate it.

[rxbeth]

I'm sorry. I'm glad she's okay.

[careyalis]

You are not a bad mom! It was an accident that could happen to any of us I'm glad she is doing alright!

[breezy8407]

It will be okay! She will be fine. Don't be too hard on yourself.

[jenbelle]

Glad she's okay! DOn't beat yourself up, it happens. Sending hugs!!!

[sunshineluv]

Shit happens. She is okay and will never remember that moment. Do not beat yourself up. You are an amazing mom.

[ruby412]

We've all been in similar situations at one time or another. It happens. Be kind to yourself!

[Deleted]

Oh no!! I'm glad she's okay.
Don't worry. It happens!! You are not a bad mother at all!!!
Accidents happen

Rhys fell off the couch and his head hit the metal bars of his bouncer when he was a few months old. Happens to us all

[Na]

I'm so sorry. Give yourself a break. She's fine and won't remember a thing.

[laurensmomma]

Accidents happen, sweetie! Don't beat yourself up! Give her extra cuddles today and give yourself a break. Xoxo

[raynes]

Poor baby, and poor you! By hat must have been very stressful. Please don't be hard on yourself, accidents happen!

If it makes you feel any better I let Violet fall backwards off the table at the freaking doctors office.

[katie]

I am sorry, I know how bad you feel but it was an accident. I dropped my cell phone on Lillian's face when she was probably 5 months old and felt so horrible telling daycare how she got the mark on her. Lillian rolled off my bed a couple months ago and busted her mouth open, had a line of a bruise from the edge of the bed. 

[fryjack2]

You are not a bad mother! I don't think anyone gets through infancy and toddlerhood without at least one story like yours.

[artgal84]

You are a great mom! They are just getting so wiggly. Luke tried to worm himself out of his RNP yesterday and also leaned forward and face planted on the carpet from MY LAP. While we were all reading. Stinkers!

[carawestt]

Accidents happen! She is okay, that is all the matters.

[Regina Philange]

Don't be hard
On yourself.

Zoey flipped out of her swing 1.5 months ago. It wasn't moving. I had stopped it and ran to pee. She scooted out and flipped face down. It was the middle of the night. I panicked. She fell on the bar of the swing and her blanket was on the bar so it was a soft fall but now I always buckle her in everything. Houdini. She was face down and screaming. Ugh worst night ever.

[imimahoney]

Thanks again, truly! She took a good nap and now seems fine, just a touch fussy. Her mouth is probably bothering her which makes sense.

And for those who told scary stories, I liked the for kind words.. not the infant pain

[lolaburns]

Don't be so hard on yourself. It's crazy trying to keep just one safe and completely over the top to keep TWO or more safe.

E fell and got a huge knot and scrape on her forehead just yesterday! And today I was taking a shower only to have L bring me the disheveled iPad cover removed from the IPad and my brain is so fried I can't remember if I removed all the little magnets from the cover ! I remember removing them but not how many. :/ ugh.

[thedahliharpa]

Poor baby and mama! I'm glad she's ok. Babies and kids are crazy, they will stop at nothing to hurt themselves, it seems. I know it made you feel like the worst but you are far from it.

[spaghetticat]

Aww I'm sorry. Please don't beat yourself up! Sending healthy, feel better vibes to your whole house.

You poor thing How did it happen? I ask because I NEVER strap C into his seats and just assume these little baby blobs aren't going anywhere.

Ugh, she has really started to reach for toys. We'll I got out of the shower and moved the seat closer to the tub because of my tiny bathroom. My back was turned to her and she lunged to grab a hanging toy and just smack her face on the tub instead. She's not very long so she probably just didn't have the length to grab the toy.

She's fine now thankfully. I totally learned my lesson.

[dojo]

Could have happened to a million of us (obviously me included)

[formerlyllizzyb]

it's okay, honey! it could happen to anyone.
