Clutzy but Concerning.

Hey All!

I am almost 17 weeks pregnant with my second child. While sitting down on my glider ottoman tonight reading books to my 3 year old, the ottoman slid out from under my big butt and I hit the floor directly on my butt. It wasn't a terribly hard fall but did startle me (and my daughter who wondered what the heck I was doing on the floor). I will be calling my doc first thing in the morning (it's 10pm now...too late) but wanted some reassurance from Bumpland that everything will be ok?

You should be fine. You'd have to have some serious trauma to your person for it to be a concern. Baby is very cushioned in there with lots of fluid. Keep a watch out for cramping, or bleeding-- but you should be alright.

You will probably be fine. Watch for cramping etc but although a painful fall, baby didn't take a direct hit
