Current mood: crushed
Well this is not a very happy fun blog, infact I wish I didn't have to write it. But I want to document little Mia's lifestory as she grows into her first year, and with that I guess I have to write about the not so fun stuff that goes on.
If you ever saw me with Mia or heard, I am such an over protective mother. I always make sure shes ok, I go to her the second I think something is wrong, I am constantly doeting over her, and always making sure shes safe and secure. Well tonight something happened that I am not to proud about...
Every night I give her a bath and get her ready for bed. Ever since she learned to turn over I have taken extra precaution about her being on our bed. Especially since it is alittle elevated than most beds. When she learned how to crawl I have become even more precautious, and if I need to turn around for a second for anything I make sure shes in the middle of the bed, with pillows and blankets on either side of her so she won't be tempted to roll over. I even give her, her little stuffed animal piggy to distract her. Things have always gone well until tonight...
Tonight things went as usual, I gave her, her bath and got her ready for bed. Adrian was out in the tech. center just outside our bedroom and we were talking. I just put her little jammies on (which she hates) and she was throwing her usual fit. She was crying pretty loud when I got her all zipped up. Then Adrian asked me a question, I couldn't hear over all the crying so I turned to face him, I still couldn't hear him so I walked closer to the bedroom door (less than 2 feet from Mia) I answered his question and just then I heard a loud "THUMP!!" OMG! I thought it was the cat that jumped off the bed but realized the cat wasn't on the bed and it was MIA! I spun around and found her on her hands and knees on the floor. She had rolled off the bed and landed on her hands and knees and she began to scream at the top of her lungs. I ran over and picked her up, consoling her and walked her back and forth in her room talking to her calming and consoling her. I felt horrible! Adrian later came in and helped calm her down. After checking her out she was fine. THANK GOD! The way she landed was the best way possible, because she didn't bang her head and she didn't land on a limb. I checked her tiny wrists for any signs of a sprane.. and nothing she was fine. She soon was playing and cooing like her usual self. As for me, after I found out she was ok I was a wreck. Adrian helped calm me down and reassured me that these type of things happen and that it just shows the both of us how careful we need to be and watchful.
She is doing good, she drank her bedtime bottle and went off to sleep with no problems. As for me I still feel horrible. It should never have happened. I always make sure shes safe and ok and the one time I let my guard down this happens. I feel aweful. Well now I know to always be on my toes no matter what and always be careful. If you read this someday Mia, know your Mama really didn't mean to and she apologizes so much. It has taught me a very valuable lesson... never EVER take your eyes off your little one!
