Fell on my pregnant belly yesterday
So yesterday as I was out with my three year old walking our dog, I tripped on a rock and fell full force on my stomach. I am 34 weeks pregnant. I was in instant pain, from the moment I picked myself off the ground. I called my doctor and immediately drove to the hospital. I began having intense contractions especially in my back. They were concerned I may be experiencing detached placenta which can happen from trauma to the belly. They were also concerned about mine and the babys blood circulation mixing so they drew blood. They said there was a very real possibly I would be delivering my daughter that day. I was so scared, but then I began responding to medicine and my blood came back normal. I was later sent home, today I am Sore as hell in my back but otherwise i am fine. I am so thankful for how strong my baby girl is!!!! I am so thankful everything is fine because it could have ended very differently! I wanted to share my story because I have seen some posts from woman who have fallen, or been pushed down or hit or kicked while pregnant. It is so dangerous for baby and you!! Please seek help and please seek protection from your abuser. No one has the right to do that to you or your child do not let them make you feel it is your fault because it is not, they are responsible for their own actions! You are loved! You are important! Don't let anyone tell you or make you feel otherwise! You are worthy of love and happiness!!
