[quote=Anonymous]Oh op I’m sorry, I saw your update and can imagine I would feel similarly but truly, while you may have technically made a mistake it’s not one that almost every parent hasn’t done at some point (or maybe not exactly but something similar) and we just got lucky (or for some a fall happened too!) most kids have a big head bonk at some point and it’s very very unlikely if you got her checked out there would be any long term damage. Truly. Even if she had gotten a head injury (which she didn’t based on the check up) kids at that age are remarkable at recovering from them and their brains are so good at recovering. I really really wouldn’t worry about long term damage and would try to be kind to yourself. My Dad didn’t use an infant car seat correctly and my sister fell headfirst from it onto the concrete at a pool as an infant. And my dad is 6’4 (she wasn’t that high up but still as he was picking her up it wasn’t a tiny fall as the car seat kind of flipped). Anyway she is an MD now. You’re clearly a great and caring mom, hope you are able to give yourself some grace. [/quote]
