had a fall last night

So I'm almost 29 weeks along,  last night I attempted to carry my 2 year old into bed and tripped over a few very large toys that I guess I was blind to.  Well I made sure my 2 year old didn't hit the ground but I landed on a bike.  I only felt pain in the back of my upper thigh,  but today I'm having lathe amounts of discomfort in my ribs and I'm not sure if they ate Braxton hicks or actual contractions.  I have 2 kids and never actually felt a contraction.  My little girl is moving around tons so I wasn't too concerned until I got up from need and hunched over with pain. Could this be residual pains from the fall or could I have done something more affecting my pregnancy?

I think the biggest things they worry about in car accidents or falling is a placental abruption. I think you are fine but calling your doc is a good idea.

The big thing is,  did you hit your stomach? If you did, go to the hospital.  If not, just monitor for vaginal bleeding and or contractions.
