Ack, I hurt P

I was just suctioning P's nose and he moved which caused the bulb syringe to go too high. Now his nose is bleeding!! I called his ped when they opened b/c I was so scared damaged his nasal passages!! They said that the mucous membranes are very vascular and bleed easily especially when they are inflamed from congestion. She said fortunately since it is such a vascular area like your mouth, it heals easily. She said I may see more blood in his snot for the next few days, but that he is perfectly fine!! I still feel like an awfully bad momma though.......
