You poor things! How is she? Did you get her to the doc's? I would have been quite worried too as concussion can be quite a tricky  thing. I would always err on the side of caution with such a big bang on the head. Hope all is well.

It doesn't sound like the fall knocked her out so that is really good.  I think that is normally the first thing the doctor will ask.  A nasty bump on both sides of the head is probably really hurting her.  I think the only way you are going to feel better is if you take her to the doctor.  Sometimes the peace of mind is just worth it.  Good luck and so sorry this happened.  We almost had a similar situation with the ladder but I caught my 2 year old before he fell off the top.  UGH!!

omg poor thing.. have you taken her to a doctor ? for the bruises you can dab the area with hot water with some salt in it.. it really helps..

dont worry she would be ok

take care

 

i would call my doctor asap.  if she is still irritable and acting like she wants to vomit, she could have a concussion and should be seen immediately.  keep her awake until you hear from your doctor about what to do next.

The ladder is metal & heavy (i can only just lift it!) thats why i'm worried. I think i will take her up the hospital, she still hasn't settled.

Normal falls for children are usually nothing to worry about, but ... I don't mean to worry you, but a ladder falling on your little one is a bit more than usual. Is the ladder heavy? Metal? Wood? from high up?

Usually, serious signs of a fall would be acting confuse, vomiting, passing out...   I don't know if vomiting hours later could still be to to this, but because she is irritable, I would suggest to go ahead and take her to the doctor.

Good luck.
