My daughter is 2. She was spinning trying to make herself dizzy and she fell and hit her head on the table. She hit the right side of her head. It is starting to swell a little bit and she is already bruising. I have an ice pack on her head. She has a small cut that is bleeding a little bit. I am not sure how deep it is. It is a very tiny cut. She cried for about 2 minutes and now she seems like herself. My husband is in the military and is on duty right now. He thinks as long as she is acting normal then I shouldnt take her to the emergency room. I am not sure what to do. I am worried because she has a very small head and I don't want anything to be wrong. I would feel like the worst mother if something is wrong and I didn't take her in. I need advice on what to do. Her temperature is still normal and she is acting like nothing is wrong. Adve please!!
oops! I should read before i reply. lol
Quoting momofJandE0203:
My daughter is a pro at head injuries. As long as its turning into a goose egg and she is acting normal with no vomiting she will be fine. Just keep her up for an hour or two. I've been to the er numerous times with dd, all said the same thing.
And way to go mama for being concerned for you LO. Some moms just don't care. If you're worrying, you're doing a good job. Hope everything goes well.
Growth spurt?
