See the rosy cheeks and reddish lips? Justin’s not on make up, but that’s the red swollen right cheek and lips he got after bumping his face on the floor on his attempt to crawl.
He’s been trying to crawl for a few days, and finally knows that he should lift up his tummy and be on fours before making his move. But he still doesn’t know how to coordinate his hands and legs, and sometimes he’ll off balance and fall.
Yesterday, he hit his forehead and got himself a condo. Today, his hit on his right cheek and lips, and got swollen pinkish cheek and a bleeding upper lip.
MIL said better don’t let him learn how to crawl as he’s injured himself. But I think he’s getting better at it, and getting hurt sometimes should not stop him from going mobile. Just that I need to be more careful and faster in catching him if he’s falling again.
Well, after he has master crawling, the whole house is a dangerous and exciting place for him to explore. Better start child-proofing my house.
