Fortunately, she landed with amazing form in a strong plank-like position, and stopped crying within 10s of being picked up. She's a tough kid!
I know his is no news to many of you, but man, as they become more mobile, I gotta watch her like a hawk and be more vigilant. I can't just plop her somewhere and count on her staying put.
Kids that age bounce (and bounce back) pretty well.
But yeah, it can be a rude awakening when they go mobile.
