What a month we have had so far , It started of with Keith getting and ear infection ( not much fun and I was enjoying sleeping through the night ) , Then he got an eye infection , Still cant work out where that one came from . Then 4 days ago he started his own record for distance and mess with power chucking then the next day the diarrhea started flowing to go along with it . So yesterday DP and I took him to white cross to get checked out , While we were there we were asked if he has had any falls lately ( bit obvious when he is almost 10 months old pulling himself up on furniture and has the normal bruises ) So we said yes he has fallen and hit his head a few times , The Doctor excused him self and we could see him talking to a nurse , who then we noticed got on the phone to someone , The doctor came back and ran through the usual question about his health , then he asked how he got the bruises on his head and we explained about how he is trying to climb up on the couch , TV cabinet etc .

 Then he excused himself again to talk to the nurse , this time we over heard what he said …. Its all a false alarm call them back and tell them not to worry . ……

Well then the penny dropped for us and we realised what they were thinking .. They thought that we had been abusing our little angle.

I can understand that they have to be on the ball with things like that , but they could of talked to us before jumping to conclusions and causing unnecessary stress.

When we left I was shaking at the thought of them thinking that I could hurt Keith in any way .

Short of wrapping him in cotton wool and bubble wrapping everything in the house ( That would be a fun pass time )  I cant stop him from having a fall while he gets to grips with his balance .

Poor you and DH, it must have been awful!!! Yes I can also understand that they have to be careful but it still makes you feel stink that the thought had even crossed the dr's mind.

Must remember to NOT take Anastasia to the dr/hospital I'm not sure I would explain all the bruises that she has as she is into everything!!!

I remember a friend of mine saying that she took her young boy to the Dr, and he had a fractured arm. They made her wait in the waiting room while they attended to the young boy, and then brought him out to her and let him walk to his Mum to see if he would go willingly to her ... as in, had SHE broken his arm? It's so sad that this is how society thinks by default now. So very, very sad that there is so much cause to

I'm sorry you and your DH went through that switches. I'd go the bubble wrap - just make sure you cut ventilation holes
