If she landed mostly flat and didn't hit her head on anything, she is likely fine. Just watch her and if you notice anything different, then call the Dr.

She's probably fine. Just watch her for the next 24 hours or so. I always say it's time to worry when a baby doesn't cry after an accident.

She is probably fine especially if she cried right away. The time to worry is when they don't cry.

I would say she is probably just fine...watch her and make sure that she doesn't fall asleep and refuse to wake up...that arms and legs seem to be functioning as they should...that she is making eye contact and responding to you when you talk to her. She is probably fine.

kiss her booboo and make it better she will be fine. unless she is showing sign of a concusion or something else dont worry you have lots of falling off the couch and out of bed left to go. my oldest rolled out of bed every night till he was 7 and my youngest is following suit. he wakes up and gets mad at the bed rail cause it stops him.and gets up and goes and lays down with his brother.

answers from Philadelphia on

Did she fall onto carpet or hardwood? Is she acting normally? Do take your time to learn the lesson from this scary incident and not leave her laying on the couch or bed or any elevated surface unattended. Secure her in the swing or seat, or even lay her on a blanket on the floor if it's a safe space.

I hope you both feel better soon.

Call the advice nurse if you have one available through your doctor's office. They will tell you what to look for.

answers from Fresno on

Ask friends and family for a recommendation of a good chiropractor that sees babies and have her checked out. You don't want to have problems develop later when they can be fixed quickly now.
