Can Falling From 3 Feet Cause Internal Bleeding?

My 6 year old crawled off our counter and basically fell horizontally (belly flop) to the ground. Out counter top is 3 feet high. He is sitting up and was initially complaining of pain. 15 minutes has passed and he says it isn t aching as much. When if at all, should I become concerned about possible internal bleeding?
