Re: help!! limping!!
Oh Freya try not to worry to much, poor little man must've pulled something, rest him for a few days. As for nursery is there no one to mind home or you trust ultimately to take your daughter to school? Could you carry him? Xx

Re: help!! limping!!
Totally normal to worry! Whenever Alfie hurt himself when he was really small I would be absolutely beside myself! He jumped off the sofa when he was about 10 weeks old and landed funny on his leg and was limping around for a few minutes and it gave me such a fright! Now the way he throws himself around and runs into things I can't imagine what I was ever worried about haha!! Xxx

Just keep a close eye on him for a few days and I'm sure he'll be back to normal in no time xx
