Falling during pregnancy

[Wildfire1073]

Ok guys how serious is falling when you are pregnant?  I took a pretty hard fall today.  I slid on the ice and landed on both my knees.  They are pretty bruised up and not much skin left on them.  I didn't hit my stomach though.  Any ideas?

I don't know if it's my imagination or what, but my stomach is starting to feel kind of crampy like before AF.  It's not real bad though.  Think I am going to call the doctor though.  It was a pretty hard fall on the concrete.  Thanks for the advice everyone.

My sister was pregnant last year and fell on the ice right on her ass and had no problems whatsoever....remember, you can't shake a good egg!

I fell yesterday while going downstairs to place a dirty cup in the sink.  I was wearing a pair of socks when suddenly I slipped and falling on my butt while going down six steps.  My small back hurts but there are no bruises.  It hurts at times, but I still haven't seen the doctor.  My baby still moves frequently as usual, but I've been having headaches more than usual.  What should I do???

Well i have just went 14 weeks and had a pretty bad fall in which i took all skin off my elbow and both my knees. I too was scared about my little one but found everything to be fine (thank goodness). The worst bit was when people asked if i fell on my belly - i just couldn't remember. Doesn't matter know cause all is well. Hope it is for everyone else too!!!
