Had my first bad mommy experience last night
I wasn't going to tell anyone because I felt so bad, but what the heck. If this is the worst thing I do, I guess I'll be OK. Here goes:
DH and I were giving Steven a bath in the sink last night. I was holding and washing him as usual, and DH was "helping" by standing around watching (as usual   ), and Steven was kicking and playing. He kicked so hard that his hiney slid and he flew back. I had my arm on his back, but he hit the back of his head on the sink.  He started crying, I picked him up and DH and I were calming him down. He stopped crying in about 30 seconds, but I was soooooooo nervous. he had a huge knot on his head. I felt so bad, I called my mom to come and look at him.
Needless to say, he is fine now but I was so nervous and I said daddy's doing the holding in a bath from now on.

Awwwwww, dont worry, he sounds fine, just watch him. If you notice anything different call the doctor. Its just the first of his falls. You are a good mommy! dont beat yourself up!

Re: Had my first bad mommy experience last night
oh, thats just the beginning. wait till he starts walking and falls and bumps his head, and knees and everything else. and when he starts jumping on the bed and falls off that. and the infamous falling off the bed when he falls asleep. there are many more bumps and bruises to come. Its heart breaking to a mom, but the kids forget about it. it hurts us more then them. Glad to hear the lil guy is doing fine.

Thank you! I know. I finally just started to let up on myself. My mom (who watching him while I'm at work) is definately keeping an eye on him and I will this weekend. He doesn't seem to have a headache or anything. I'm sure he's fine.
It's me who's scarred for life!

The first of many bumps and bruises. I swear Damien's first year after walking he had constant bruises on his head

Re: Had my first bad mommy experience last night
Things like that happen to many moms... I fell asleep with DS on my chest and when I was startled by the phone ringing, I sat up and he just rolled onto the floor. I cried like a baby (more than him).
