It happened in Guangxi.
At that time, it was three children playing on the top bunk, and the children were jumping and pushing on the bed.
As a result, the little boy accidentally fell off the top bunk while pushing each other.
Head-down, the child's head slammed into the ground.
When the pregnant mother saw this, she was angry and heartbroken.
How can parents let such a young child play and push on a bunk bed without any cushioning on the floor.
Parents said: I only heard the sound was very loud, the child kept crying, looking back at the monitoring after the legs can not stand straight, immediately took the child to the hospital for a full body examination, the child is swollen head, no big problem, and now it is alive again.
Now the bunk bed has been dismantled at home.
The child fell from such a high bed, and this result was really lucky.
Many netizens watched the news and were scared:
"Oh my God, the back of the child's head hits the ground. ”
"This fall made my heart hurt. ”
"Looking at the heartache to death, this kind of bed is really impractical, it costs a lot of money and has many hidden dangers, so it is not recommended to buy it. ”
"That's tall enough to break an adult. ”
"It's scary, adults have to take care of children. ”
There are also netizens who suggest: Parents must be safety-conscious, don't buy this kind of bed if the child is so small, or choose a high fence, or you should take good care of the child, don't let the child play on it.
That's right, parents should take care of their children, this kind of bed itself has many potential safety hazards, and you can't let your children play on it.
Once a child falls into bed, the injuries can be minor or severe.

That's right!
It is really not a trivial matter for a child to fall into bed, and it can be fatal if it is serious
Pregnant mothers have seen a lot of news about children falling into bed accidents.
Some babies have broken their collarbones, and some babies have lost their lives as a result.
There is nothing alarmist at all.
A 1-year-old girl in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, fell from the bed while taking a nap, and when the family found the child, the child fell into a coma, and two days after arriving at the hospital, the doctor declared the child brain dead.
This is real news reported by the media.
The 1-year-old son of celebrity mother Sui Tang also fell out of bed due to an accident, and his head and shoulders hit the ground and his collarbone was broken in two.
His son Olie was so painful that he couldn't stop crying on the spot, and it hurt just thinking about the whole process.
It is really not a trivial matter for children to fall into bed, and parents must pay attention to it.
Don't think it's normal for your child to fall and bump.
It's a blessing that you didn't fall and get hurt, and it's too late to regret it if you fall.

The child falls into bed
Why is it so badly hurt?
Why is it that the bed is not high, but falling can lead to such serious consequences?
This is because babies and young children have a large proportion of their heads, and it is easy to "hit the ground" when dropped, which will cause a huge impact on the child's skull, which may cause concussions, skull fractures, etc.
And if the child's head hits the ground first, and the ground is a very hard floor or tile, even if it is not very high, it can cause serious consequences of intracranial injury.
What's more dangerous is that intracranial injuries sometimes don't have obvious trauma, so parents may not be able to see the problem in the first place.
But intracranial injuries develop quickly and are severe, and by the time the symptoms are apparent, the situation is very serious.
To protect children, the most important thing for parents is to take precautions to prevent children from falling out of bed.
Secondly, such an accidental fall incident, do not judge the baby's injury according to the height of the fall, and do not feel that there is no skin trauma to fall into the bed inappropriately, which is very dangerous.
Once the best time for treatment is delayed, an intracranial injury can kill the child.

For children falling out of bed
As long as you do these two steps well, you can protect your child
Step 1: Prevention first
When a baby falls into bed, prevention is more important than dealing with it afterwards.
As long as parents take safety measures and take care of their children, all bed falls can be prevented.
Parents must do a good job in the following points.
● Never leave your baby alone on a bed or sofa without guardrails.
Not for a second, the child rolls over, and the fall from the bed may happen, you have to take something, hold the child together.
It is also possible to place the child on a crawling mat in the living room.
●It is best to have your child sleep in a crib. Use crib fences less than 6 cm apart, as this distance may cause your baby to get stuck.
● Spread floor mats around the bed. Both the queen bed and the baby cot are cushioned so that there is a cushion even if the child falls off.
● Replace the height of the bed rails in a timely manner. If your child's height is more than 90 cm, or the height of the bed rails is less than 3/4 of your child's height, you can consider replacing your child with a regular bed without a fence.
● Be sure to place the crib in the safest place possible. The crib must not be close to the window or furniture, as it is very dangerous for the child to easily climb out with the help of furniture or windowsills.
● Wear a seatbelt at all times. If the mother is home alone and has something to attend to, she can put the baby in the stroller for a short time, and be sure to fasten the seat belt, which will prevent falls.
● Keep an eye out for children sitting in high chairs, shopping carts and strollers. Be sure to secure your child with a seat belt and never leave your child sitting in the car for a moment, not even for a moment.
●Take safety measures for stairs. Falling down stairs can cause injury to your child's head and neck, so be sure to install a protective fence on the staircase and be sure not to leave your child playing at the top of the staircase.
● At any time, do not put the baby on the table, bay window, chair, cabinet and other places with a certain height from the ground.
●All balconies and windows in the home should be safeguarded.
Step 2: Proper handling after an accidental fall
When the child cries after falling into bed, the first reaction of parents will immediately pick up the baby and coax it, don't do it.
Many injuries after falling into bed are invisible to the naked eye, and parents need to carefully observe the abnormal situation of the baby, and pick up the child immediately, so that the abnormal situation of the child cannot be found at the first time, which is likely to bring a second injury to the child.
How should parents deal with the child falling into bed?
(1) Observe in situ for 20 seconds
In order to prevent secondary injury, parents should not pick up the baby immediately after falling, but should observe the baby on the spot for 20 seconds, and pay attention to the following conditions of the baby:
●Observe your baby's landing position, which is important to check your baby's injury.
●If the baby falls on all fours, see if there is any abnormality in body movements, whether there is a certain part that cannot move, or cry when touched, and whether there is any abnormality, such as slurred speech and improper walking.
●Observe the baby for active bleeding and hematoma, and carefully check for fall injuries.
● Touch the baby's limbs and torso with your hands, if you find that you are crying particularly badly in any place, do not be careless, there may be a fracture.
(2) Observe if there are other abnormalities
Some symptoms may not appear until a few hours after a fall. If your baby has abnormal irritability, lethargy, projectile vomiting, abnormal behavior, uncoordinated movements, etc., you need to go to a children's specialist hospital immediately.
(3) Continue to observe for 2-3 days
After the fall of the baby seems to be as usual, parents can not take it lightly, generally need to observe 48-72 hours, pay attention to feeding and daily care observation, if the child is normal, in the next day or two there is no abnormal behavior, eating, drinking, playing, sleeping, etc. can be carried out normally, then there is basically no problem.
(4) Correctly handle the baby's skin trauma
●If the skin bleeds, press with gauze or a clean towel to stop the bleeding.
●Apply a cold compress to the injured area for 15 minutes for 72 hours to reduce subcutaneous bleeding, and after 72 hours, apply a warm compress to help the fluid absorb.
●If the baby has heavy bleeding, bleeding that does not stop, or bleeding from the ear canal, or has limb movement disorders, it is necessary to send the baby to the hospital in time.
(5) Don't do this:
●Do not apply sesame oil or other home remedies to reduce swelling: If there is a wound, applying something at will will cause infection, and sesame oil has no effect on reducing swelling.
●Do not apply hot compresses immediately or rub the swollen bag repeatedly: If it causes a hematoma within 48 hours of the bump, do not rub it!
(6) In these cases, medical attention should be sought immediately, and there should be no delay for a moment
●Loss of consciousness. If your child is unconscious, call 120 immediately, if this is the case, do not move your baby unless he is in danger of vomiting or injury, and if he is not breathing, give him baby CPR immediately until he is helping him breathe.
●Unstoppable bleeding. There is a significant dent or bulge on the head, and the wound bleeds heavily, and the bleeding cannot be stopped after more than 10 minutes of compression.
●Vomiting and convulsions. Vomiting more than 3 times without appetite or for no other apparent reason.
●Fractures. Significant limb deformities, such as bent wrists, or uncoordinated arms or legs.
●Concussion. Persistent vomiting or extreme drowsiness, abnormal behavior, language, vision, and motor skills.
●Brain injury. Such as changes in pupil size and abnormal eye movements.
●Prolonged crying or screaming. This may mean that your child has internal injuries, such as bleeding from the abdomen.
I hope that all parents can help their children stay away from accidental injuries and grow up healthily!
