I noticed this morning he was trying the stairs out and had went down one. So on my lunch he tried it again only one of the others ran past him (Brodie flies up and down them) and made him speed up and he lost control.

I'm STILL shaking here at work! I seen the whole thing and HEARD it. His poor tiny body just went limp and he had no control. And he cried

I think he's ok. RIGHT??? ya he's ok.

There will be some changes and new gates going up. I wish my husband will carpet them. I'm going to ask if we can remove the tile.

You guys it was HORRIBLE!!!

I knew it . . .I am sure Brodie inadvertently pushed him

That is what scares me too with Tiger so rough with Annika sometimes. When I put them on my bed I fear one day he will push her off the bed and have a really bad fall

Am glad little brooklyn is now okay . . . .give him a little squeeze from me and my furbutts

I'm sorry to hear this. Hope the little thing is ok and there won't be any complications. Maybe putting a runner on those stairs will help. Or even a baby gate. Warm hugs to you both.

Thank goodness he is Ok.

Rosey07 · 01-04-2008, 11:08 AM

Oh so glad you posted back yeah! he is OK!!!

LuvMySissy · 01-04-2008, 11:15 AM

I understand all too well Brenda. Both Sissy and Angel have fallen down our solid oak stairs. Sissy fell only once when she was about 20 weeks old and she has never tried to go down again. Angel fell down twice before she decided she had enough. Thankfully our stairs are short since we have a tri-level - only 6 of them - but enough to be completely frightening as you are watching and can do nothing about it. Both the girls were okay after they fell, but were as shaken up as mommy was.

My philosophy on the stairs is that since they are only about 7 inches high and the stairs are about 8", they end up being kind-of like a slinky with that head first topple followed by feet overhead. I like that they don't go down the stairs myself.

Hope Brooklyn continues to be just fine.

What a frightening thing to happen. I am sure he's ok if he's eating but
he will probably be sore tonight and possibly tomorrow.
I would put a baby gate across those steps because they never learn.
He'll be climbing them again before you know it.
Hugs to Brooklyn and you.

Bizzymammabee · 01-04-2008, 11:17 AM

Oh gosh..how is the baby now?

Belindtch · 01-04-2008, 11:20 AM

Glad he is ok. Stairs can be very scary when you are that small.

hartygirl · 01-04-2008, 11:20 AM

Poor Brooklyn, we hope he is feeling better.
I can only imagine how you must feel, I hope you have a better evening filled with Brooklyn snugles and kisses.

JCarlson2004 · 01-04-2008, 11:20 AM

OMG I would have been scared out of my mind!!! Thank goodness he's ok!! Poor baby, give him some extra kisses for me!!

zoeybear · 01-04-2008, 11:20 AM

Hope he is OK. It is not funny at all that he fell, but I did have to smile at the long list of "goodies" you gave him afterward.

Poor baby. They think they are so big!

cariblonde · 01-04-2008, 11:36 AM

Hope your baby is doing ok.. He may start throwing himself down those stairs to get all those treats!

Bonnie's Mom · 01-04-2008, 12:13 PM

I had just woken up at 1:30 this morning when I heard Bonnie fall down our whole flight of hardwood stairs

It was a horrible sound and scared me to death. I jumped up and ran to get her. She was shaking just a tiny bit. I put her in bed with me and checked her to see if she seemed hurt but she didn't. This morning before I left for work she was jumping off the bed and running all over!

I'm sure your little one is fine!

addicted · 01-04-2008, 12:19 PM

omg... i'm so sorry that you had to go through that... i hope he's doing okay

stedmansmommy · 01-04-2008, 12:30 PM

OMG Brenda, I am so sorry that this happened to little Brooklyn! I KNOW you must be scared to death! You sound just like me (with the shaking and crying hysterically) when Tatum almost choked to death the other night

I cannot even put into words how SCARED TO DEATH I was. Good Lord...

Give Brooklyn a little hug for me and I hope that he is ok! Poor thing is probably just shaken up and a scared
