Share your clumsy pregnancy moments here

So I don't know if you can break a toe but I may have just did. I slipped on some sand on the sidewalk getting out of our Tahoe and rammed my big toe into the curb on the way down to the ground. Then I was stuck between the car and the curb in a pile of tears. Once I'm down it's been getting harder and harder to get back up. Luckily my DH was there to help me up. Now I'm sitting with my foot up with some ice. So go ahead and share your clumsy stories. Sure I'm not the only one. :\">

  • I have 2 unexplained scratches on my leg and a scratch on my arm from trying to squeeze into a tiny bathroom stall. I keep forgetting how big I am and squeezing into tight spaces isn't an option anymore

    I fell down last few steps of the stairs in my home three days ago while trying to catch my son before he fell and sprained my ankle. A sprained ankle while 27 weeks pregnant, crutches and a 19 month old is a recipe for disaster. I'm thankfully on the mend already but this sucks!

  • Not clumsy, just embarrassing. I'm dog sitting for a friend and needed to go get the mail. Well, I figured I'd bring the dog in case he needed to pee, and our mailbox is just around the corner (we live in a townhome community, so all the mailboxes are together), so I let DS come along and didn't make him put on shoes.

    Well the dog pooped! I had the bag container on his leash so I juggled the mail and the bag and scooped the poop, then had to walk to find the poop trash can. Well a neighbor sees us and says something about DS being barefoot and all I could muster up was that I didn't expect the dog to poop. She looked at me confused and went on her way.

    Seriously! I didn't think he'd poop so I didn't think we would be going far. I just wanted to get the mail and putting shoes on a toddler can sometimes be harder than herding cats.

    End rant. :(

  • I was picking up some paper from the floor on Sunday. Lost my balance and went to land on my butt but mid valence countered the weight and went forward. I did not fall all the way. But while this is going on a little girl and her mom (I think watched the whole thing. They did not say a word to me as I got back on my feet.) So no more cleaning up after people at church or picking things up in a squat position.

  • My hands dont seem to work quite right. I have a hard time grasping things and drop things ALL the time now. It's a little scary being that I'm a dental hygienist and work with sharp objects in people's mouths EVERY day....but so far no incidents at work haha. 
    I also have been having a hard time telling left from right lately...

    I would love for someone to tell me something like this so I could tell them to mind their own f'ing business, but would probably be so shocked I would probably end up saying something like I didn't think the dog would poop too. People! Ugh!

    I could not imagine having to be on crutches right now. I have a pretty nice limp with my toe , but luckily fur me it just looks like I have a really bad pregnancy wobble going on.

  • I dropped a coffee cup and a dinner plate on Sunday at different times. They both shattered. It was lovely. I drop everything.

  • We were at dinner Sunday night with about 16 friends and family members for DHs 30th birthday. I got up to use the restroom for the millionth time and bumped my belly off the back if DH chair then jumped back and knocked over my water. Not my most graceful moment. I keep forgetting how big I am!
  • I've managed to forget where i parked the car everyday this week, walked into a door post, spilled my water on to my husband and trip over my feet whil taking a walk downtown. I feel like such a crazy clumsy mess!!! But i still laugh at myself.

    I keep dropping my insulin syringes. Those things are skinny and hard to hold on to while also juggling the little glass vials.

  • I have a scar on my leg- a scar! From nicking my calf on the corner of my car door as it was closing on me a couple months ago. It all happened so fast! It took a chunk out of my leg. Apparently getting into a car iz hard.
