Baby fell off sofa backwards

My baby was just sat on the sofa and was facing the sofa, fell off backwards so when she fell she was facing the ceiling, I heard the back of her head bang quite hard and now I’m freaking out. She cried but she seems fine now. I am so paranoid, what if she’s caused a fracture or something else inside I’m so scared I hate myself so much right now

Did she fall on to carpet? You need to watch out for her being sick as one of the warning signs. You could call 111 and they will run through a series of questions as to wether you need to go to a&e.

not carpet, wood!

Ring 111. There are things you need to look out for in the hours following a fall.

waiting to be put through now

She’ll be fine
They say if she vomits eyes roll etc
You should go in.

Hey. It had happened to my boy a few months ago and he was fine. I am sure your girl will be too but keep an eye on her. I believe its more worrying if they have fallen from a height of a meter or more. x

we was waiting 4 hours for them to give her some calpol and send her home as she seemed fine.. always predictable. Feel better going in

Tonies

Thinking of buying a Tonies box for my toddler’s birthday, but according to some reviews I’ve read on Amazon they don’t last very long and are prone to technical issues, etc.
Those of you who own one, what do you think? Are they worth the money?

Panicked breastfeeding

Hi all, my little girl is 3 weeks old and exclusively breastfeeding (I'm also pumping so my husband can help me get naps in when baby is fussing). Problem is we seem to have the hungriest baby ever even outside of cluster feeds, but most importantly she goes through these panic moments where she just... freaks out on boob? Feels liks she's screaming for it but it's literally in her mouth. She's definetely drinking enough as she pulls off boob and milk sprays everywhere, and she's shot past her birth weight, our midwife even mentioned she's one of the fastest growing babies she's seen. So what's with the freakouts?? I end up crying in the dead of night every night atm 😅 I've tried making sure she's warm, burping her more, calming her but she still has those episodes. Overtiredness maybe?

Two things I am curious about! Not a problem, just intrigued to see what others are doing

1) My nearly 7 month old still can’t roll! She has been sitting unassisted for a while now but still has 0 interest in rolling during the day. At night I can see her on the monitor desperately trying to get onto her side but can’t yet.
How old was everyone’s else’s when they started rolling?

2) when did people start dropping night feeds? My formula fed daughter has 1 bottle in the night at around 1! Not sure when I should think about dropping this? She wakes another 2-4 times in the night but just for the dummy.

night feeds

At what point do people stop waking up there babies for feeds.. n how long is longest they go ?

silly question…

How do you guys break the attachment to smaller clothes your baby can’t fit anymore and get rid of them? I’m cleaning out my daughters drawers today and feel my heart hurting with each piece I take out 😩

Night feeds 15 weeks old formula fed

Hi everyone 😊

Just wondering what others do about night feeds…

My baby is 15 weeks old and formula fed. She’s gaining weight, but not loads, so I’m a bit unsure what’s best.

If she has a bottle around 9pm, would you usually wake your baby in the night for another feed, or just let them sleep until they wake up?

Would love to hear what worked for you and your babies at this age! 💛
