This afternoon my 7mth old son fell off his changing unit onto the floor and landed on his forehead. He cried but not as though in any severe pain. I called the surgery and they said as everything else was normal (his nap times were fine and eating has been fine, except he has a cold so he is a little off his food), just make sure he isn't drowsy. I've just gone in to check on him and I am sure I can feel a raised bump on his frontal lobe. I am sure there was nothing there this afternoon. It might be just my imagination because of the horrendous guilt and worry about him being okay . DH has just taken him to A&E to have him checked out. I hope I am just a neurotic mother but is there a chance something could be 'forming' or 'growing' or developing due to a bump/blow to the head? I am now so worried about a clot or something I don't know what to think or do. Has anyone had any experience? I am SO worried.
