The other day Muski insisted on wearing two fleece hats and a sunhat inside all morning. I did suggest that his head might get a tad hot and sweaty with three hats on, but he wasn’t listening and it wasn’t worth the battle so I let it go. About an hour later he lept off the couch and landed head first on the corner of his wooden tool box.
Ouch!
I saw head meet tool box and I blessed the stubborn streak in my boy as I felt sure those three hats saved him from a split head and a trip to the Drs.
This afternoon he wasn’t wearing any hats.
He fell off a kiddy camp chair and hit his head on the corner of a wooden box, splitting it open right where his eyebrow meets the bridge of his nose. There was a lot of blood and quite a bit of crying but not nearly as much crying as when we held him down to stitch it back together.
Three stitches, a whopping big band aid and some panadol later he’s fine, as long as no one even looks like they might want to breath near his head. Then you get a stern “Nooooo OUCH HEAD!”
Poor Morgan!! Quick healing wishes :-)
Aww honey!!
Lots of healing to his OUCH HEAD from us too xx
poor wee man! Thank goodness heads are tough huh!
You won’t believe, we are living parallel lives LOL A had similar accident yesterday, he climbed into a dolls pram and it tipped over backwards, he wacked his head *really hard* on floorboards, an instant egg developed. His head is still really sore, and a bit lump on it, but is otherwise he seems fine! Again, sooo glad heads are tough!
Not a good week for heads this one!
Hope he heals quickly!
I did the head injuries the other week, but we had glue not stiches! Now Muski will have a cool Harry Potter Scar :)
Oh, poor love! Hope it doesn’t give him too much grief over the next few days. I am sure Bibi going to do something like this one day with all the jumping and tripping she does…
Oh dear, poor Muski. Josh has a similar scar in his eyebrow, though we had to get him sedated to do the stitches! Sam has had the glue on his head too.
With both of them, the scar is hardly noticeable any more… but Josh is scared of going to the dr’s now.
Hope he heals nicely and doesn’t have too many more of these little accidents.
Ouch poor Muski and mumma too hope it heals quickly there seems to be an influx of stitches requirement in your neck of the woods
owwwwwwwwwwww!!! poor little guy…..
head wounds are horrid eh??
Hope he is all better very soon!!
hugs
ouch! the poor little fella.
All the cool kids have scars on their foreheads! Well, stitches, anyway, hopefully not scars…
He still beautiful!
I can not believe my son has not done something like this yet. I swear! The kid is crazy and running all over…jumping off things. I am sure a trip to the ER is in our near future. Hope your little guy feels OK soon.
Arg, owchy. My youngest fell onto the hinge of the closet door just before she turned one. She needed to be glued together at the doctors office too. One thing they told us was to keep the wound out of sunlight, even when it’s healed over and you don’t need the band aid anymore. They said to pop a band aid on when you play in the sun for a few weeks, because the sunlight will cause the scar to remain more prominent. We did this and you now can’t tell that she had an injury at all. Unfortunately we didn’t do that with a much smaller scrape on her cheek and that has a visible scar now even though it was a much much smaller cut. Hope he’s at least a little less into the death defying bionic stunts now ;) My two are still like miniature Evil Knievals!
