AARRRGGGHHH! WHAT NEXT?!

ok, so i am officially sick of taking kids to the doctors - tonight was the second time in 3 days that we have been, only this time for ayja and it was my fault!

Miss Ayja was asleep in her carseat when we got home, so i got her out of it, cradled her in my arms, and tried to hurry inside cos the wind was cold and i didn't want to wake her up or get her too cold. Clumsy me tripped and fell didn't i?! and well, with her in my arms there was no way to get my balance back, so now i have a huge bleeding graze on my knee, also right down the hand i tried to put out to stop us hitting the ground and on the back of the wrist of my other hand that was craddling ayja, and hello - after all that, we still hit the ground, i still fell on top of her and her head hit the concrete and skidded along it. so now, in EXACTLY the same spot as the huge haematoma was from her fall at 6 days old, she now has another huge big red egg, (actually i think it's bigger, and it's hard this time), and her head is all grazed and bleeding.

am officially over taking kids to the doctors...they're gonna set up a VIP carpark right outside for us soon.

am sick of being the one that drops Ayja (come on, how clumsy am i?! ...

am starting to wonder what people must think of me...

and i am afraid what is going to happen next! (i just might stay in bed tomorrow morning, just in case!)

grrr

oh hunny i do feel for u someone said on here that your not a real mum till u hurt bubs (accedently of course) james fell of my kneen and whacked his big head on the floor today so now i feel bad big hugs and heres to a better day tomorrow

Hugs Janine, I always worry that will happen when I carry Joey in the front pack. Don't be so hard on yourself!!!

mmmm hannah is quite familiar with door frames. more often than not i whack her head on them as i go through doors!

janine, honestly, i've given up counting the amount of times i have tripped when carrying hannah down or up stairs and it is by sheer luck that i have never actually fallen. (actually i did fall one on a slippery ramp, but again, sheer luck that hannah's head landed on my arm - but geez that was sore! lotsa grazes for me! and in front of all the passengers on the cable car )

hopefully you'll get a break in doctor visits. no one is judging you babe!!

Oh Janine, you are having a rough time. Big hugs. Hope its been an accident free day today.

I must have missed this thread somehow...

I hope Miss Ayja is feeling better - and I know what you mean about the VIP carpark lol! Now I have a new Gp within walking distance and even then I sometimes wonder if I should just take my sleeping bag and camp out there

And if you're a bad Mum love, the rest of us must be shockers!

kool u feeling better

kids! Ya gotta love how resilient they are. Glad both are doing ok.

Apparently when I was little I had constant egg like lumps on my head from banging it on things (and I would dare say having others bang it for me). I still hit my head a lot now - dunno why - but I'm ok!! Most of the time....

it bsounds awful, but i think if you protect your kids TOO much, they won't end uplearning stuff. Like someone said before, learning to go up and down steps. I mean, you want to protect them from serious harm, but i don't think a bump of the head, scratches or bruises are too bad. that said, I ahve a little boy, they look much better on boys than girls.
