That was supposed to be *bruising! But just saw ur post. So glad everything is fine :)
I took a good fall while jogging this week at 36+4. I called my doc and these are the reasons he said I would need to come in: consistent pain, baby not moving, Onset of bleeding, or visible trauma or prolonged to belly. I felt fine and felt baby moving with no bleeding but had some scraping and minimal bruising on my belly. They had me come in for 6 hours of prolonged monitoring bc of the visible trauma. Everything was pretty irregular on the monitors for about 2 hours ( he called it an irritable uterus) then sorted itself out. I hope this helps! Good luck!
Thank you to all of you, I went in. My baby Violet is perfectly fine :)
If ur feeling movement and not having consistent pain or bleeding, the baby is fine.
Instead of making a trip to the hospital, call Labor and delivery and ask them if you should be concerned, that way you save yourself a trip, and they will let you know if it is serious enough to come on over to the hospital. Hope this is helpful.
