What do I do when my toddler has a fall?

Even after an apparently minor head injury, complications may occur. You will need to do a thorough check for injuries, especially if he falls on his head or back. Call the doctor immediately if your little one exhibits any of these symptoms:
  • Unconsciousness, continuing drowsiness or difficulty in waking from sleep.
  • Appears confused or not understanding what is said.
  • Vomiting.
  • Complaining of severe headache or trouble with their eyesight.
  • Prolonged crying or screaming
  • Any loss of balance or problems walking.
  • Becomes irritable.
  • Has any kind of attack, which you think is a fit.
  • Any weakness in one or both arms or legs.
  • Clear fluid coming out of their ears or nose.
  • Bleeding from one or both ears.
  • New deafness in one or both ears.
  • Cries more than usual or is more difficult to settle than usual.
  • Fails to grasp objects.
  • Any abnormal behaviour (trust your instincts)

Do you think using a protective headgear for babies is being “over cautious”?

No. In fact quite the contrary, using a protective headgear will allow over protective parents to give their babies the freedom they deserve to explore more than they previously were allowed to. As a mother, I would rather be safe than sorry when it comes to my kids. When I grew up, all the floors had soft thick carpets but in today’s households mainly due to health reasons tiles cover most surfaces which increases the impact of falls as compared to earlier. Furthermore, with the growing distractions such as TVs, cell phones, etc., the ability to truly keep a watchful eye on your kids all the time is also becoming a challenge on its own. SafeheadBABY will not prevent your baby from falling or bumping his/her head. As parents we understand that it is not possible to prevent every bump or bruise our baby will sustain during their learning-to-walk phase.  However, having a helmet for a baby learning to walk will reassure many worried working parents who depen...
