Dawn fell off the Bed... for the 2nd time...

I was working in the study room when I heard a very loud thump just now. Fearing the worst, I jumped out of my chair & ran to our bedroom.

My worst fear was confirmed when I entered our room & switched on the light. Dawn had indeed fell off our bed again for the 2nd time! Kel was carrying her in his arms trying to pacify her. When she saw me, she wailed even more loudly. She only calmed down when I carried & soothed her. Her left cheek was bruised again. The irony is that the both times that she fell off our bed, it was her left cheek that bear the brunt of the fall even though she fell from different sides of our bed. Poor baby...

Actually I had no idea how she fell off our bed. I had fed her at about 12 midnight. When she was sound asleep, I padded her left side with 2 pillows & 1 bolster. Kel was at her right side, thus I didn't see a need to pad that side. With that, I left our room to work in the study room. I suspected that she might have woken up. In her daze, she might have sat up, then she went to lie down on 1 of the pillow. When she was sound asleep, she might have flipped, thus she flipped onto the floor.

Kel was very angry with me for leaving her on the bed while I went to work. In turn, I blamed him for not taking care of Dawn while I was working. It's times like this that I wish that I can be a full time sahm. Then I don't have to work & can concentrate on looking after my kids. Currently, I feel so torn between my kids & work. Haiz...

Hopefully, this would be the last time that she fell off our bed. I am definitely making sure that this would not happened again!
