Baby’s first real bump

I was the same as you, distraught when baby slipped whilst cruising on the edge of the couch and banged her head. I posted on here in a total panic, baby was fine after 30 secs with cuddles! I’ve since moved her big foam mat to the sofa edge but honestly falling is a huge part of them learning, she’s learned to fall on her bum since then. It happens to us all and I’m conscious of not wanting to restrict her and prevent her from learning and developing confidence just because I’m worried about her having a slip. It’s very normal for baby to have the odd bump and will be the first of many, all you can do is try to put mats etc down to prevent them hurting themselves too much. Don’t beat yourself up ❤️

He’s woke up with a black eye 🙈. He caught right on the corner of it on the edge of the bottom stair. He’s absolutely fine and back to climbing everything but my god the guilt I feel is unreal 😞
