My baby is falling down from the bed!!!!:-(

I have five kids and I think they have all fallen from the bed. I remember the first time my son fell from the bed he was a baby too and I just about cried along with him. I thought for sure he had hurt himself because he was a baby but those little babies are so flexible. It's not like you mean for it to happen but it does. I never put any of our kids in a crib when they were little because I used to breastfeed them and it was just easier. I have had them fall of sofas rolling over as well. You have so much to go through because your baby is only 5 months wait till he starts to climb all over the place then he will really scare you.

I haven't experienced such because I don't have any baby yet. Though I remember my mother telling me that I used to fall down from the bed,she felt the same way as you did,scared and cried with me. She said that she can't stand seeing me crying and in pain. She also said that I was such a crawly baby even when I'm sleeping. So what they did was bought a crib so I won't fall from the bed anymore.

I think all babies experience this for babies are so flexible,they will learn to rise as they fall. ALthough I know how parents feel when they see their baby on the floor and just fell out from the bed,it's excruciating to see your baby cryin in pain.We can't really avoid such incident to happen,all we can do is to prevent it from happening again like what my parents did to me.

Im sure it was just an accident, a horrible one for a mum i know, my daughter is 7 months old and she fell off the bed last week for the first time and boy did she scream. As others have said they will all experience knocks and bumps as they grow up s its nothing to worry about, of course unless he is seriously hurt but they are usually ok.

I had experienced things such as you. I wept and was very anxious to know my baby fell from bed. I feel very sorry for not protecting my child.

It is Indeed Annoying to See Your Little One Hurt .. Our First Child Had Fallen Down From The Bed Twice when He was Small, We Did Worry About It .. We Thought We Will Take Care of the second One Very Well .. But The Second One Also Fell A Couple Of times (just 1.5 years Old).. You Just Cannot help It .. Pray that everything Will Be Alright ..

I know how you must be feeling.
My son is 1.5 years of age and he fell from the bed three times.First time when he fell from the bed,he was just 4 months old.We were sleeping and in the middle of the night we heard a bang and a cry.We were fast asleep and we knew that our son had fell down.He cried aloud but by the grace of almighty he was alright.
Second time when he fell down he was 5 months old.I had arranged pillows on all corners and went to the kitchen to wash utensils and again he fell down by jumping off the pillow.
Third time he fell when he was one year old .Again he fell down from the bed when he was playing.
I have a homeopathic medicine which cures internal injuries with me whenever he falls down i give it to him.

It is horrible isn't it! At 5 months babies experiment with movement. You will notice their kicking in the air, trying to lift their butts in to air and such. They also try to try to turn on to their sides and bellies all a part of their learning process in mobility. These cause them to slide to one side and fall from the bed.

You can attempt to stop this by putting heavy pillows on both sides of the child. I say attempt because my son usually managed to push the pillow and take the dive right after it!

Alternately line the floor either side of the bed with cushions to soften the fall.

When i was little i use to fall of my bed all the time my grandma helped me fix that problem i still sometimes fall of the bed but that is when i am stressed.

I am so sad to hear that.It reaind me that my brother hurt his head years ago as the same experience.It's obvious,there's a deep wound in my brother's forehead,~~~~~en,it's forever ...hurt.
Little baby always climb here and there no matter where,and i am afaid that you must buy a baby bed that it has barriers arround the bed.That's safe,when you sleep or far from the baby you also feel relieved. Happy mylot!!!

oh, my god! i believe your baby is fine now. i do not have such experience. It was an accident, so do not be too sad. i think maybe is better you let your baby sleep on the baby bed, instead of sleeping together with you and your hubby.
