    Sounds like your having a bad week ...
    When I was 5 months pregnant with our son, our dog tripped me over and I literally fell flat on my bump.... he was fine although I wouldnt recommend it .... lucky you fell on your butt, just watch the movements and relax.

    Pregnant people shouldnt be upset

    Thanks ladies, i spoke to a lovely lady from the hospital she told me to just monitor her movements if she becomes less active or i start to cramp or bleed to come in and get checked out.

    I fell down stairs and broke my foot at 28 weeks with DS and he was fine. The hospital said he was well protected and would suffer no ill effects.

    I fell from a standing position onto my side when I was 36 weeks pregnant - DS#1 truned out fine (if you excuse the current obsession with Lighting McQueen )

    Yeah I'd say just keep an eye on things, make sure nothing seems amiss.

    I had a bad fall when I was about 38 weeks with DS, I was crawling along the floor to DH (being stupid of course) and I tripped and smashed my diaphragm against his knee (which was propped up)

    God it hurt - tears to the eyes immediately!!

    And although I may think something is wrong with DS cos he's pretty weird () - I've been told by enough people that nothing is wrong with him due to that fall - its just my influence.

    I hope you are ok,

    Bubs is likley just fine, as I believe it is more repeated or very severe knocks that damage bubs, as when they do get hurt, the blood will rush to the most important areas to protect, and if that happens often it can delay or inpeed on the development of other arears iykwim,

    i fell flat on my backside about 3 weeks before my due date and the worst thing hurt was my pride.

    I was still at work, and was so heavy, i went to slide my chair but it didn't move, I did, and plop flat on my very well padded rear.

    I then proceeded to rofl while everyone looked down on me saying are you ok? no seriously are you ok??
