Head Injury

Today is unlucky day for me. In the morning I was fallen from my bike when I drive it around the complex. I got bit superficial wound in my knee. It was really sore. In the afternoon bad luck comes again. When I was ironing, my baby fallen from my chair. That was wheeler adult chair so that too high for him to fall from. Actually I always put my baby in his “baby walker” when I was busy doing house works. Then he will walk around the room with. But I don’t know why I’m so blasé let him sitting up alone in my chair, so when he moves the chair become unbalance then fall with my son. His head hit a floor. He was cried a lot for few minutes. I hold him for a while till he fall a sleep. I really regret because that was my false. But then I felt relieved since I’ve not found the signs of bad head injury on my little one. No swollen in the head, no bleed and crying only fo aminutes. In fact, head injury is very common accident in babies and children. That is because they are very active to move.
