Infant fall: Infants who fall should be examined by their pediatricians to rule out a concussion. By falling on the behind, the infant most likely is fine. There is more fat to cushion the fall. If there us no apparent fussiness or excessive crying, she probably is fine. But bring her in for a check up.
