Answer 1

When my younger brother was 4 he fell down the last 3 steps (in our house, stairs) onto a marble floor. He hit his head. We immediately applied ice. While he looked okay and stopped crying, we took him to the doctors to get checked out anyways.

I'd deff. call the doctor just to be on the safe side!!

Answer 2

You can't lose anything from getting a scan at the doctors.So best go

Answer 3

U can always call and tell the dr what happen and can shaken baby syndrome happen to basically a 2 yr old? I didnt know that it could at that age... hmm Id call the dr just to make sure.

Answer 4

If she is acting like her normal self she should be okay. Just keep watching for any different behavior from her.. Also call your doctor and let him know what happened.
