Unfortunately, no one here can answer this question.  As others have suggested, it is best to call your doctor.

I was in a car accident during my first pregnancy at 18 weeks and went to the dr to be sure everything was fine. He told me that it wasn't necessary unless I was at the end of my 2nd trimester or in my third (with a large stomach). He was nice and told me he didn't mind doing an u/s for MY peace of mind, but it wasn't necessary. I'm sure you're fine, but if it would make you feel better you can always call your OB and see what they suggest you do.

I fell in my last pregnancy on a bathroom floor and landed right on my back. I felt fine, so i didn't go to the dr. And at my next OB appt. My dr. told me at ANYTIME when you fall, make an appointment to come in ASAP! They are not worried about the baby, but the placenta. The placenta i guess can become easily detached, and wont work propertly if you fall. So i'm sure that you are fine, but i would just double check with your doctor just incase.
Keep us posted!

I had two terrible falls this pregnancy, the first one was at around your time and my stomach went really tight but all was well and the second was a couple of weeks ago!!  As long as there is no bleeding you generally don't have to worry just rest up!!

I know how scary that is, I fell twice during this pregnancy so far. I think your baby will be fine, at this point baby is still really tiny and is very cushioned in there. If it makes you feel better you could call your OB and see if they want you to come in but I think you are ok.
Be careful :)
