My younger daughter whose 15 month had just begun walking.she fell and twisted her bone below her knees and after getting an x ray done has a slight fracture. Docs say its common in toddlers and will rake 4 to6 weeks to heal. Its only day 2 and she’s trying to walk obv she has it plastered but how can I stop a baby trying to be active. I’m.very worried.

Did the doctor say that the baby can’t be active? If not, then let her be active, just keep an eye on her.

Learned something new today…I would never have guessed that this is a “common” thing.
Re: 15 month old slight fracture bottom of leg.
^I second that.Never heard about it.A fracture is a fracture,nothing slight or mild about it..!
I hope your daughter is all better soon,iA.

Same thing happened to my little one. Keep her off her feet for the first couple days let her watch videos play puzzles etc. also, always put on the special shoe when she is on her feet…should heal just fine in about 4 Weeks!
