Thank you doctor! I am naturally a worried person so her falling didn't help much . She seems fine - even rolled back to tummy this morning- I just always fear the worst- I had a night mare last night she had a brain bleed
Hi VMP! Please do not worry so much. The pupil reaction and other examinations have been normal. If your daughter is playing, eating and generally fine, then there is not much need to worry. However, small children can develop symptoms of mild bleed even months later. So just keep a watch out for symptoms like excess crying, head banging, sleeping extra—as in throughout the day, not eating for 2-3 days-lethargic etc.
In all probability she is fine—infants and toddlers are actually quite resilient and strong. Also a MRI so early in a slow developing bleed may not show anything. So, just keep a watch out (which as a mother you anyways do—nothing extra) and stop worrying! Take care!
It's been a week now- do you think she is okay and no serious underlying issues are present
I took my daughter the ped yesterday. Felt her skull and soft spot and said it felt good- that her pupils were good and ears were clear.
It has been 4 days now- how long would it take to show internal bleeding
Thank you for your post and comforting words
I would say by this time she is out of the woods, it sounds like she was lucky and is just fine.
