My baby is 7 weeks old I just went to put him back in his next to me and he startled as I lowered him and he knocked his head every so slightly on the side of the next to me, he didn’t cry and stayed asleep, I’ve picked him back up and he’s asleep on me snoring his little head off, but I’m worried do I need to take him to the hospital or see how he goes? I feel awful 😭😭

I think if he’s not showing any concerning signs I wouldn’t worry, especially as it wasn’t a hard hit to the head
I accidentally walked too close to the bannister on the stairs and tapped my baby’s head off it, he did cry but settled quickly and I just monitored him during the day but he was absolutely fine 😊 x

I’ve knocked mine on the car seat a couple of times, just a little oopsie daisy and she’s been absolutely fine! Babies bounce back 😊

Sure he’ll be fine. My twins are 12 weeks now and have really strong necks so love to throw their heads back and forth when I’m holding them on my chest - there have been many head butts into my collar bone/ chin. A few little crys but they are fine. X
