After a morning nap she ate a nice filling lunch which was surprising since she ate a huge breakfast. After some playtime she wanted to go up and nap. So, we headed to the stairs. I couldn't figure out why the gate wasn't opening all the way so I looked down and was horrified. OH NO, her left hand ring finger was trapped in the swing gate handle.
I smushed it when I was lifting the handle (the grey part above) to open the gate. She didn't make a peep until I let her finger out. Then the pain hit and I haven't ever heard her cry like that. I felt so bad, it was completely my fault for not watching her hands the whole time when we were going up. I wrapped her hand in an ice pack for about 5 minutes, but then she wanted to go to sleep, so I brought her in a laid her down. It has put a slight damper on what I though was a good day . . . I'm sure she'll wake up fine, but I still feel horrible. She was moving her fingers all around, so nothing is broken. Oh my baby . . .
