please be careful on the stairs :(

I fell down the stairs while holding Julia yesterday. I didn't drop her, but she was crying really hard for about 30 minutes afterwards and I just felt like something wasn't right. I called the pediatrician after-hours line, but decided to go ahead and head in to the ER before even hearing back from the on-call doctor. She settled down on the car ride there, which made me feel better, but she got really upset again when I touched her knee when we were in the waiting room. That worried me, but I was hoping it was just bruised or something. Then when she was being examined, she wouldn't put weight on her left leg. I knew at that point something was wrong. The x-rays confirmed that she had a fractured femur. They put a temporary splint on her, and she'll go sometime this week for the hard cast. I can't believe I fell and hurt my baby...but she doesn't stay unhappy for long! Look at that smile!

I have some bumps and bruises on my back and my neck is really sore today, but I am fine. I'm just so thankful that I was able to hold on to her, and that her injury is to her leg and not her head!

Re: please be careful on the stairs :(

  • Oh no!  Poor thing.  I am so sorry that happened to you guys. 
    I fell down the stairs with Foster when he was about that age.  Luckily he was fine, but I have been so nervous on the stairs with the kids since then.

    And I have to add, she is so stinkin' cute!

  • She is ridiculously cute.  I am so glad it was *just* a broken leg.  Poor baby and poor mama!

     

  • Poor baby AND poor mommy!  How scary, but so glad it is only a leg.  Babies heal so quickly and you'll likely never be able to tell anything happened.
