Please help.. toddler just fell when she flipped?!


Question: Please help.. toddler just fell when she flipped?
Our tot did her lil gymnastics at the bottom of the bed! So she basically flipped and her back hit right on the bottom of the bed (footboard), and she landed on the floor. She cried BIG TIME, dunno if it's because she's hurt or more scared. She go up right away tho and walked.. I gently gave her a lil massage on her back and right now, she seems o be alright. Is it possible that she could have broken or dislocated any parts of her backbone? I really dunno anything about this .. thanks for reading and answering.

Answers:

If she's up walking around and coherent, she's fine. You have a problem if she starts profusely vomiting or can't walk without being in pain. If you just want peace of mind, take her to the doctor. People take their kids in all the time for less.



If your daughter or son are anything as active as my daughter Na'Riah then they will be ok. They are just in shock. If you don't see any marks or bones pertruding through flesh then they should be fine. Depending on how old they are a bottle of milk, and some TLC will patch up all hurt. Good luck!

Very active daughter



I think she'll be fine. Ask her if it still hurts. If she says yes, make her lye down on her back for a while so the pain will go away. If she wasn't able to walk then u would have to take her to the doctor. I think she's fine since she can walk....
- Hope she gets better! :)



Feel around making sure the bones all feel normal. They should be fine. The main part is if her head hit the ground. If it did then make sure you look into that.



i dont think so. If you're unsure then go see a doctor. As long as she didnt fall on her head she should be okay.
