I co-sleep and just woke up to the sound of the radiator clanging as my toddler fell off the bed. It was dark so took a second to find her, but I heard a little whimper and found her sitting up on the floor. Picked her up and stuck her on the boob- she fed for a bit then rolled over and went to sleep. She's now sleeping quite soundly but does still respond if I tap her or move her. I've looked her over with a torch but can see no signs of redness or swelling on her head or face (haven't checked elsewhere due to pyjamas and sleeping bag). She's 14 months old.
Do I need to seek medical advice? Feel dreadful. She's never fallen from the bed (or moved at night without me waking) before and we do have a bed guard but she was on the other side for feeding purposes (not usually an issue but DH not in bed tonight). She doesn't tend to move in her sleep, but will when stirring. I'm very shaken.
