(They gave him some Tylenol with Codeine right when we arrived at the ER so it didn't take long for him to fall asleep)
Last Monday Talan fell off the kitchen counter while in his bumbo chair eating lunch and broke his left collarbone. At first I wasn't sure if he broke anything or was just shaken up with falling. He would try to crawl but it made him cry, and when I would pick him up, he would wince and cry. So I knew something was wrong. But every time I would squeeze his arm or ribs or anything, there was no reaction. So, I waited about 2 hours after it happened to finally take him in to the ER. They took an x-ray and found a small break in his left collarbone. They said that there wasn't much to do for the break, so just to keep him from putting a lot of pressure on it and just to be careful with him.
Poor little Dude!
I am happy to say that it took about 4 days and then he was crawling and being his busy self. He still winces a little if someone picks him up wrong but for the most part he is almost back to normal. The ER Dr. told me that I need to take him back for a follow up x-ray on Monday, so we will see how healed he is.
