Toddler boys.............. So last night I got to take my toddler to the ER. In true toddler boy fashion he climbed up on one of our stools and spun around.....then proceeded to fall off. He now is in a cast for a wrist fracture 
Day 1 he is ready for it to come off. Lovely.

Poor guy. I can't even imagine trying to deal with a toddler in a cast. Is it one that people can sign? Maybe that will get him to think it's cool for at least a little while?

Its a splint cast right now till Friday when he sees an orthapedic. Then they put some moldable cast on him. At least it is waterproof and he can still go to pool.

Poor little dude. I hope he heals up quickly.

DS has been climbing everything lately. I'm just waiting for something similar to happen.

Poor little guy, i ope he heals quickly, I broke my wrist when I was about 1. My mum said that she told me not to hit my brother and sister (both older) with it. So what was the first thing I did? Smacked them with the cast, of course. thanks for the great idea, Mum.

Oh. man. That sucks, but swimming is nice. My kids get severely hurt just about every day (so much that Feb child is going to an OP to help her pay attention and not get hurt as much) and I never take them in...someday they'll be like, why doesn't my wrist work...good job knowing it was an ER thing.

Dude.... I don't know about these boys!!! I'm so sorry about the cast! DS1 gave himself a black eye last week. His bedroom for sticks in the summer and he nailed himself in the eye with the knob when it gave way.

He also jump started out 4 wheeler without assistance.

And started our toaster in fire.

And jumped out of the 10ft tall playhouse.

And off the roof of my SUBURBAN.

Worst of all, I have 2 more younger than him. Hugs and solidarity, mama!

Oh no! Poor little guy and poor parents. Glad he is in good spirits ad hopefully this just goes very quickly!

[pinkie]

Oh no!!

[singingsea]

I'm sorry! Let him bedazzle his cast? Seriously give him some markers, glue and fake gems. That will buy you a couple days

[creepyeyeball]

Poor little man. So sorry for him and you having to deal with the cast.

Oh, that sounds terrible. Yesterday my little guy (Sept. '14 baby) rolled off the couch and chipped his front tooth. He's okay but I have a feeling he might be injury and accident-prone too. I hope your DS heals well and gets used to the cast quickly!

[cinnasugar]

Poor thing! And poor mama!

Oh no! At least it's just a baby tooth.

Well the only reason I took him to Er was not what you think, I didn't know lol 

So he fell at like 730 pm and was crying holding his wrist. So I had him wave and do different things with this arms and hands and he he did them just whimpered a bit. After that he ate dinner and didn't mention it again. By 8:30 he started hold his arm in front of him like he was wearing a sling and not using it. So my husband cuddled him about half hour and started asking him to do the things I asked him to do. He then burst into tears and cried saying how much it hurts. At that point he wouldn't make a fist. My husband when he was younger broke both arms and said he was able to do a pull up back then but couldn't make a fist, so I knew then something was wrong. Then he flipped the f out trying to put a pajama top on him.

It is a teeny tony fracture right at wrist on his right hand and he is a righty. He goes to the orthopedic today so we will see what happens. SHockingly he has been a champ even with the 90 degree weather at keeping that on his arm, being he won't even let us put bandaids on him.

My kid is a rough and tumble boy. By age 10 months he had his first black eye from running with this walker and tripping and smashing his face on the wheel. Made for great first Christmas photos.  He has probably had about 8 black eyes or bruises to the face from sports, his bike, running and tripping (crocs are not toddler running friendly lol). My husband and I are grateful for insurance LOL
