I have a 14mth old who recently caught her finger in the vcr ( video recorder), that we have set up in her bedroom. She is fine just has very sore finger. We have now put it higher up to avoid it happening again.
Anyway i would like to
address some basic safety rules: Especially related to young children.
Make sure all medicine, bathroom, laundry and household products are kept out of reach. eg. high shelf or lockable cabinet.
Always keep electrical cords and equipment out of harms way.
Neave leave baby unattended where they could fall. eg. bed or changetable.
Always make sure nothing is lying around as potential choking hazard.
These are just a few safety issues, i'm sure there is many more and often you can get more information from your doctor or child health nurse or other sites off the internet. These types of accidents are always avoidable just need some basic commonsense.
