My 2 year old fell down our stairs today (top to bottom) and got off lightly with just a cut in her lip. I called 111 just to be sure as I was panicking due to the height and her age, but she has no injuries, not bumps, cuts a bruises and is totally normal within herself. 111 advised to go to a&e anyway to be checke...
