DS fell over (while standing) and bonked his chin on the coffee table. I thought it was just like every other head bonk until i saw the GUSHING blood!! I FREAKED!!! My almost 10 Month old baby I rushed him to the ER Where he gt stiches in his upper gum. (He has his two bottom teeth) Poor baby!! He was such a tuff guy!
OMG! That is my worst nightmare! Poor little guy, I just feel so bad for him (and you too Mommy!!!) HUGS!!!! Mine are 6 months and we are starting to baby proof. We have a slate and iron coffee table and end tables and I want them outta there!! DH thinks we can just put some of those pads on the edges - uh I don't think so!!!
Oh my! What an experience!!! Glad to hear that he is OK...I can just imagine how you were feeling seeing the blood from your little guy. This is such a thing I dread!!
Poor little guy! Ellie used to bounce up and down standing really close to the crib rail. Until the day she smacked her chin and bled all over the place too.
OH MY GOSH!! That is really scary and i would have FRREEEAAAKEED!! I'm glad he's okay! Did they have to put him in a papoose or how did they hold him still?? I STILL remember getting stitches as a baby IN THE PAPOOSE and it was really scary!! (I was like 3) I'm glad he's okay I'm throwing all my furniture away now. LOL.
oh poor little guy. i am so glad he is ok. how is he now? i took out my coffee table since it was a glass top and put it in the attic for now. hope he and you feel better soon :hug99:

I dont know how he is doing now.. He is still sleeping.. they gave him codine.. Stitches in the top gums.. I wanted to ask how many, but i forgot. I would post a pic.. But its pretty nasty.. And they wrapped him up "like a mummy". Those are the words that they used.. My poor baby. I feel so bad for him.
OMGoodness! I hope he heals quickly ( and you too ) That must have been so scary. DS hit his head on the entertainment center a month or so ago and had the biggest lump and bruise for days. Broke my heart everytime I looked at it. Definitely not looking forward to all the bumps and bruises they will get.
I know how you feel. My dd fell out a 2nd story window when she was 1. I still feel horrible to this day. Hope your little guy heals quickly. :hug99: This is just the start of probably many bumps and bruises(like pp said).
Oh my! Stitches! Good thing you brought him in. DS fell and we had blood, but it stopped and everything was fine at that age. :hug99: Poor guy!
Poor little guy. My older DS did this when he was about 3. He fell in a pumpkin patch and bit his lip, it bled like crazy. I am glad he is ok. Talk about scary. Jen
Sooo sorry hope he is doing better… I remember Noahs FIRST stitches when he was 11 m… he didn’t shed one tear, but I was balling Elizabeth
