My 13 month old mindee has attempted to climb into the megablock tub and tumbled backwards onto the floor. He has a lovley red bump on the back of his head and the skin looks a little broken. I have had a cold pack on it for a while. He has had a sleep and now I'd tucking into his dinner but I was just a bit concerned that I have noticed some red pin prick spots behind his ear that I have never seen before. He is well otherwise.

Would you be concerned, mum is aware he has bumped his head. C x

no hon. as long as he's acting and appearing like normal. I'd just observe.

when you give mum the accident form just make sure she knows to observe for signs of concussion for up to 48 hours (sickness, disorientation etc).:)

Fab, thank you. I am terrible when any of them hurt themselves x x

If you are the slightest bit worried after a head bump always get advice from the doctor or NHS direct.

I hope the lo is ok xx
