What seemed like my worse nightmare

So... it finally happened, Lucious fell off of the bed yesterday. :(

We were getting ready to go grocery shopping. I put him down in the middle of the bed (we have bed rails on both sides, but not at the end of the bed) so I can go to the bathroom (which, luckily, is right next to the bedroom) to put on my contact lenses (it usually takes me 10 seconds and the weird thing is, I was going to wear my glasses originally but somehow I decided to put my contacts on). I sometimes bring them into the bedroom to put them on, but it wasn't the case this time...
After I put on the contact on the left side, I heard a thud. My heart dropped and I rushed into the room to find him face down on the carpet (He's 6 months old so although not crawling yet, he can roll). He started crying, I held him up into my arms as tight as I could, tears started collecting in the corners of my eyes. I nursed him and pretended it was funny and started laughing, he calmed down within minutes.
We observed him for the rest of the day and he seems to be ok. But I still can't get the image of him lying face down on the carpet out of my mind.....
