Hello July 2012 Mommies--New Here and got a Concern

Hi ladies, I have been on this site for about 4 months now, just reading all your wonderful posts: they are all so informative and helpful! I am a first time mommy to a baby GIRL! Super excited and can't wait! I am due July 20th! I just wanted to say Hello, and introduce myself! (I hope this works, never posted b4, so if I am doing something wrong, please feel free to tell me-ha)

My concern/question: I don't know how active all of you are?  I play league volleyball in my town (a ladies league) I just play back row, don't want to block and jump a lot! So last night we had a game, I was playing back row and I tripped over my own feet and kinda did this roll onto my back and then rolled up onto my shoulder! It was pretty graceful (sure some yoga moves are more stressful then this-ha) But I just got SUPER NERVOUS something was wrong...she is kicking like normal: a lot last night and then this morning while on the couch, no spotting or anything! So please put my mind to rest that everything is fine... need some reassurance that baby and me are ok!!

And I called and told them I am DONE playing! Don't need to stress myself out after game anymore:)
Thanks laides for your comments ahead of time! Have a good Wednesday!

It doesn't sound like you hit your belly or could have hurt the baby... especially since you are still feeling her move and don't have any pain or spotting.  So I think you're fine.   I would definitely stop playing though, you don't want a ball hitting your stomach or hurting you... maybe that sounds paranoid to some, but I wouldn't want to take the chance.

Thanks for the reply! YES I am done playing! Dr said it was good exercise and since I played before I got pregnant he said it would be ok! But I havn't asked him for a month or so, so I am gonna play it safe, and stop! And my Hubby said NO MORE playing!
