Okay, so I did it...I fell down the stairs...and I am a wreck.

We just moved Monday so I guess I'm not as familiar with the house as I thought I was. Of course, it was 11:30 last night, DH was at work and I was all alone.

I called OB the second I got collected and she said that what was done was done, but that everything should be okay. I'm 16 weeks, so she said that helps.

I'm on Lovenox, so I'm pretty badly bruised and really, really sore...but I managed to punch myself in the gut and I'm still in a panic.

I know OB said everything should be fine, but I am a little more than freaked out...so any prayers you girls could offer up for me and The Bean would be greatly appreciated.

I hope each of you is doing well - I keep every wonderful woman on these boards in my prayers each day.

I am sure that was terrifying. I hope your bruises are better today and the bean is blissfully unaware of any of this. Take care and keep us updated as to how you are.

Heathermac,

"ouch".......I would be worried to, but as the other girls have said, our babies are very well protected in there...Perhaps you could go to the doc's and just get him to listen to the heartbeat....Im sure that would reassure you.....

You and bubs are both in my prayers....

heathermac - you poor thing. It is hard enought to take a fall like that, and then to be pregnant on top of it all. I believe what was posted above, there is a lot of protection for your baby. I would use this as a reason to lay down for a few days and stop unpacking for a little while.

I will keep you in my prayers.
