Ds is poorly with a cold and so clumsy...

[PoppyIsApain]

Ds 19 months old has quite a bad cold, fever, runny nose and looks exhausted, wont eat and slept most of the day. I have given him calpol which sort of makes him better. But he is sooo clumsy, i went to get him out of his cot and in 5 mins down here he trapped his fingers in his toy box and fell and bashed his nose causing a nose bleed which he has never had before. Obviously i have given him plenty of fluids but now im scared of getting him downstairs again as he keeps hurting himself and i feel awful. What can i do to help him?

He hasnt got an ear infection has he? an infection in the middle ear which sometimes doesnt cause intense pain can lead to children being seen as clumsy/falling over/swaying when walking etc.. the calpol could be masking the symptoms

Maybe, ill keep an eye on that, me and dh have had cold so assume its that, we thought he had got away with it
It is 1am now and he is awake happy as can be
