Getting Shocked

i am almost 23 weeks pregnant and got shocked by the outlet of our dryer. My right pinky tingled for a bit after. I called my Dr.'s on call and they didn't seem worried.. I'm just already anxious and now even more that I hurt my baby girl. Has this ever happened to anyone? Thanks!

Re: Getting Shocked

  • I have not, but try not to worry. Doctors don't take chances, if they were at all concerned they would have had you come in. Feel better and don't worry!

  • When I was around 10 weeks I went to unplug something from our surge protector and got quite a good shock. My arm tingled and was sore for a couple hours. I mentioned it to my doctor at my apt the next day. He wasn't concerned and none of the ultrasounds or tests since have shown anything wrong or off. I know it can all be scary but I'm sure your little girl is perfectly safe waiting to meet you come January. :)
  • Thanks all! I'm just so anxious this time around. But she just started moving around again! I really can't wait for January.
  • I was shocked by an electrical outlet unplugging a laptop with my last pregnancy and she is now a healthy and intelligent 2 year old. Baby will be alright
