that is how i felt after my daughter rolled all her weight onto her arm... thought she just bumped her funny bone but i was wrong... after the hubby got home she still wouldnt use it and every time we touched it or tried to move her she would cry... so we headed to acute care and waited like at a deli counter (seriously took a number and everything!) finally saw the check in nurse/medic and he put the order in for x-rays and said it was definately the elbow hopefully just popped out not broken! yup wanted to cry as my daughter screamed... so we went over to x-ray the poor guy had to have my husband and i hold her down then he would move the arm to where he needed... as we waited for the doctor to read the films she was happy and running around.. the doctor came in said they saw nothing but with all the fighting she did on the table it was probably popped back in place! thankfully i didnt hear it and explains the screams of pain! but the doctor said watch her for the next 2 weeks and if she starts to hold it again and rubbing it (since she cant explain that it hurts) that we should go to her pcm or er immediately and they will do another x-ray and/or pop it back in...
thankfully its not fractured! unfortunately if it is even on the first x-ray they might not see it :(
so yup i felt like the worse mom i was the one who put her on the rug to play with her blocks and she just roller... yes she is a toddler and i know their is gonna be bumps and bruises but i felt so horrible cause now it can happpen again easier :(
the joys of being a mommy thank god the hubby come home cause i felt horrible!
