Should I see doctor?

Question

Im 35 week and I was walking out of a store and twisted my ankle and fell. I caught myself on my hands and knees, my baby seems ok she started moving around a few mins later but Im still worried and wondering if maybe I should call or go see my doctor? Id just like some advice Im a FTM so I just worry alot. Any help would be great, thanks!

Answer

I would at least call and tell them.

Answer

If you caught yourself and did not hit or over strain your stomach in anyway there's no need to see the doctor you may be a little sore but it's impossible really for any harm to come to the baby if no contact was made there in that incident. Falling is definitely scary I've done it myself but I rolled down an entire flight of stairs and hit my stomach multiple times and that's what they considered a good reason to come in and be seen and even then after an ultrasound some tests and observation they sent me home.

Answer

I fell and twisted my ankle which resulted in a grade two sprain. I called my obgyn and told them I was going to the emergency room and asked if I needed to go to labor and delivery to have her checked out. I told them I did not hit my stomach and she was moving fine, they told me as long as she was moving and I wasn't cramping/bleeding there was no need. Its been two and a half weeks and my foot is still swollen and hurts and will take another 2-3 weeks to fully heal.  just be careful!
