We were right over the epicenter! DH was already up and playing with LO when it woke me up. I just ran straight out and grabbed her and took cover. I'm astounded I reacted that fast - my reflexes normally take half an hour and a couple of cups of coffee to come online.</p> <p>Relieved it wasn't a serious quake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/earthquake-in-la#post-1498284 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 11:14:23 +0000 autumnlove 1498284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't feel it but my coworkers felt it in the office! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/earthquake-in-la#post-1498267 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 11:09:33 +0000 birdofafeather 1498267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my MIL said she was already in her car just about to leave for work. she thought her car was having trouble! my SIL said it felt like a slingshot. we're not there anymore, so i wonder how the LOs dealt with it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/earthquake-in-la#post-1498244 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 11:02:52 +0000 chopsuey 1498244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Glad there was no damage! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/earthquake-in-la#post-1498228 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 10:56:17 +0000 brownie 1498228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was the only kid in my family to wake up for the northridge earthquake and we lived near bakersfield at the time. It was crazy. I was dreaming and in my dream the room was shaking and I woke up and it was still shaking. I just sat there. Now if it happens, my little dude sleeps with me and I would grab him and roll off the bed. Into the void next to the bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/earthquake-in-la#post-1498225 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 10:53:50 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 1498225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had an earthquake in LA today. It was a 4.7 and the epicenter was in Westwood. It woke us up a little before 6:30am. I hurt my toe on Saturday night and have been kind of limping since then, but I FLEW out of bed to go get Liam when I felt the shaking. He would have slept through it, but I was way too freaked out and picked him up. Nothing fell down and there's no damage, but it was still so scary!</p> <p>If you live near LA, did you feel it? If not, have you been in an earthquake with LO? How did you react? </p>
