falling

Today as I was going down the stairs my chihuaha went in between my legs & tripped me. I fell on my butt but I hit my back on one of the stairs . My daughter is still moving & active. Should I still go to the e.r or tell my dr in my next appt ?

I was pretty sore afterwards also. It was from all my muscles tensing to brace for impact and the actual impact itself. Giving your doctor a call probably wouldn't hurt, even if nothing happens, because your next appointment is a little far out. And no problem! That's what we're here for lol.

I'm 30 weeks and 5 days. Oh my you must have been so big !! Okay I was wondering if I should still tell my dr since I have an appt in 2 weeks & so far no cramps or bleeding. Thank you for reassuring me I was just worried since my back is a bit sore

How far along are you? I fell at 32 weeks, and I drank cold oj and did kick counts for awhile. Baby was still moving fine, no pain or cramping or bleeding. I had an appointment a couple of days later, and my doctor said I did good. If I had been hurting or bleeding I would of needed to go in. But she said that if somethings going to happen, it generally happens in 24 hours.

Unless your experiencing pain I'd say wait until the appt.  I'm glad your OK and your Lil one is moving around regularly. Take care
