[quote=Anonymous]I get it, OP. My daughter will sometimes really hurt me by accidentally flinging a toy in my face or banging a drawer open into my knee. She's also just so underfoot -- I have fallen down more than once because I've turned around to discover she's right behind me and lost my balance. Of course she doesn't mean to do it but in the moment it can hurt so much. I don't know of a solution. I think you just have to keep teaching them to be thoughtful about how they move and aware of their surroundings. Some of it is just going to happen because we are in such close proximity to them all the time. I try to remind myself that at some point she probably won't want to be snuggling with me or holding my hand or with me all the time, and maybe I'll even miss the random injuries. So, silver lining?[/quote]
