Default Concussion from 5 year old?

Hello everybody

This night I woke because my 5 year old toddler knocked her head against my forehead while we were both sleeping. I think she was rolling over, but I dont know - I just know that the hit was hard enough to make me wake up, although I immediately fell asleep again.

Then I woke after two hours and felt a little nauseous and couldt sleep, and began thinking whether the hit had enough force to be a new concussion?

I feel a little dizzy now and have a headache when reading and fatigue. But is the head of a 5 year old able to cause a concussion or is it to soft? And how many g-force would the impact constitute? Concussion or subconcussive? I have no bruise or goose egg.

The reason why I ask is that I try to figure out whether I should rest for the coming days, or if it is psychosomatic and I then should keep on as usual?

All thoughts are welcome and very appreciated.

Best regards
