Trying to Get Pregnant

So I broke my foot today.

Stepped up on a curb while trying to dodge around a crowd and rolled my foot and heard a pop. Would've went down, but there was one of those pop up canopy tent things and I caught myself on the pole.

Urgent care visit, X-rays, yada yada yada, and it's broken and I most likely will need a pin put in. Will be calling an orthopedic doc Monday morning.

Feeling sorry for myself because this not only messes with a lot of fun things we had planned this month, but most of all I can't drive! At least not yet. I can't put any weight or pressure on my foot and of course it's the right one. :-(

I've been using crutches that we had from DH's knee surgery but I'm just not good at them. I fell trying to get up the one step into the house and caught on my bad foot and then went down hard to my knees. I don't think DH's ever heard me scream like that. Of course TTC is now off the table for a bit because pain pills, surgery, etc.

Anyway, I know in the scheme of things, all will be well, and there are a lot worse problems in the world, but tonight, right now, I just want to cry... and cry some more.

Sorry for the vent. I just needed to get that out. Thanks for listening!

    Ugh! So sorry for your pain. Get better soon!
  • Uggh! Injuries were bad in high school and college as an adult they suck! I had a bad sprain this winter was in a boot for a month. It was my right foot too it was so hard!

  • I'm so sorry! My mom did something like that when she broke her foot. It's crazy how surprisingly easy it is to break your foot. She was stepping off the back stairs and there was a row of bricks around the bottom. Caught the edge of a brick and POP!!! Good luck with healing quick. Hope you can get back to TTC ASAP!
  • Holy crap - bad day. Hope you recover soon!! Make your H wait on you and treat you like a princess

    OUCH! That gave me déjà vu to last August when my DH did the same right before our birthdays (which are only a few days apart). He was driving within a week using his left foot (not driving was simply not an option), but it really messed up our summer.
    So sorry, and I really hope you don't need the pin!!!
  • mrskalmrskal member
    Oh, hope you feel better soon, take care.
  • That sucks!!! Hope you'll get well soon. Let DH and the rest take care of you!

  • Thanks, everyone. You guys are just plain great! :x

    So far DH is doing great taking care of me. I'm nervous about this week. I'm probably going to send him to my office to pick up my laptop so I can work from home at least until I can get in to see the doc. I hate crutches so much!

    I did this 6 weeks ago. Fell down the steps in heels, and crack/pop. My big toe broke, and I sprained my ankle. Mine was the left foot though, which made things much easier. Sorry for the life set back, you'll be okay soon though!

    @Jessie42613 ^I second this! Wishing you a speedy recovery and I hope your foot feels better soon!
  • Ouch. You sound like a champ. DH just needs to do all the work. Lol. Feel better :(
  • Love tit because I feel your pain. I broke my right foot twice in less than 14 months in the same place stepping down the same walkway at my house. FWIW, I got pregnant about a month after I broke it the first time, so it won't take the fun of trying away. :)
