About 10 min ago I fell down the stairs at work. I have been sitting down trying to relax. Now I am in pain and heading to the ER. I guess I'm asking for some positive vibes because I am very scared. Will inform you later. Thanks ladies.
I had a bad fall during my first pregnancy and it was terrifying -- they said that unless I had bleeding or cramping I was fine, but I went into the doc anyway and they listened for the heartbeat; very reassuring.

It is amazing how fast the ER doctors move once you say you are pregnant. Let me start off by saying I am very clumsy person. My shoe lace was untied today and I was too lazy to tie them. So I kept walking like this. Add to that my bad luck and a staircase yea not pretty. Well here is the 411 I was cutting a piece of paper while going down the stairs I was so concentrated I lost my balance fell and somehow my shirt lifted and I scratched my stomach with the scissors making a big line all across my belly. I got up and sat on the sofa not thinking much when it started hurting I look down and see blood and freak out! My SO is out of town working,I'm at work. And I have no one to come with me to the ER so my boss takes me. They see my cut on my belly and look at me like wth did you do. Had to explain. It is not a deep cut just big and well it looked worse than it really was. We had an ultrasound and the baby is ok. It was probably hurting from stress and my cut. I was told to rest. So I'm taking the day off and tomorrow as well. I have been discharged I am just waiting on my mom to pick me up. The best part....during our u/s the lady says "she is doing just fine" sorry I can't stop smiling! SHE! It's a girl! I had my u/s scheduled for tuesday! So I am so excited. But thank you for your positive thoughts!
So glad you are both okay and I hope you aren't too sore tomorrow. Now that we know all is well can I admit that I was hoping you would at least get to find out the sex since you had to go through this?
I'm glad you are alright! That's so awesome you found out baby is a girl! Were you a little sad your SO wasn't there to find out too? I think I would have mixed emotions.

I was. But he is out of town so I decided to keep it to myself that I know. We will go together on tuesday and he will get that surprise feeling I got.
Got to this late So sorry about your scare today. Falling while pregnant is especially scary. I'm so happy and relieved that you and your baby girl-to-be are well. Congratulations on another girl! So excited for you! Hope the rest of your pregnancy is boring and uneventful
