What Should Be Dome When Child Accidentally Bumps His Head?
My one year old son just bumped his head into a pulled out drawer. He hit near his temple. He held his breathe briefly and cried for about a minute. He then seemed fine. An hour later he has some mild swelling where he hit his head. He is acting fine in every other way.
