I just slid down the steps......

....should I call the doctor?  I slide down a few steps on my backside.  I'm not having contractions, though of course I'm a bit sore :)  It happened about an hour ago, no excessive discharge, and baby seems to be moving around just fine. 

Just looking for opinions, thanks!


Re: I just slid down the steps......

  • I would think you are probably fine. If everything is normal and you are not bleeding or having any contractions, I would just keep an eye on everything and maybe ice your backside ;) Just my opinion.

  • See how you feel. I've fallen 2 times so far. Both times I wigged out and went to the doctor or hospital. I had a lot of pain with the way I fell and it was miserable. Definitely ice your bottom...especially if that's how you fell. You will definitely feel that in the morning. Stay on the couch and take it easy. As long as there's no bleeding, no fluid, and baby's moving, you both should be fine.

  • thanks, that's exactly what I'm going to do.  I think if I was having any symptoms of anything, really, I would call, but I'm just a bit sore.  I'll see how the night goes and go from there.

    Thanks for your opinions!

  • Nah, you are most likely fine. I've done that several times each pregnancy. Hurts like the dickens and the pride gets a bit tattered especially when you do it in front of people.

  • I agree with the PP....however if you are Rh- you still need to go get your Rhogam shot just to be on the safe side.
