How scary!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937431 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 11:58:07 +0000 edelweiss 1937431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oh that must have been so scary. glad LO is feeling better, and that besides the soreness you are okay. makes me feel better that the nurse wasn't concerned (although it would have been more comforting to have an ultrasound to confirm everything!). doesn't sound like you need to do an ultrasound right now, but if you feel like you need one for your peace of mind, you could probably push for one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937427 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 11:51:05 +0000 Adira 1937427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How scary!! And painful! I hope everything is doing okay today. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937426 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 11:50:06 +0000 78h2o 1937426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you. I woke up to check on J through the night and she was fine. She was her normal self this morning, begging to listen to Frozen and singing along. I am SORE but seem to be ok. Was hoping the doc would want to check me, but I just spoke to a nurse and she said she wasn't worried. I have a scan next week, so I guess I'll have to wait until then. I loaned my Doppler to one of my husband's female friends...I may contact her to see if I can get it back (she had her baby last year). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937415 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 11:35:12 +0000 MrsMccarthy 1937415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hope all three of you are well! Very scary. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937388 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 11:07:35 +0000 MrsKoala 1937388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So scary! Hope you are both okay this morning! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937265 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 09:40:49 +0000 travelgirl1 1937265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: oh no! Are you both okay this morning? Kids are so resilient though. Hope you are feeling okay. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937264 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 09:40:46 +0000 autumnlove 1937264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope everyone is ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937198 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 09:07:08 +0000 yellowbird 1937198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: oh no!!! That's one of my worst fears! Hope you and lo are doing okay this morning! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937194 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 09:04:16 +0000 anewme 1937194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So sorry this happened. I had a similar incident of falling down the stairs with DD while pregnant. I think I was about 4-5 months. I was freaking out, ended up going to the hospital because i started feeling contraction like pain. I think they gave me something to stop it and kept me over night. If you feel normal and LO is playing fine, I think it's okay not to go. But I would at least call OB and get their opinion. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937184 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 08:52:22 +0000 JennyG 1937184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hope you're doing well this morning! How's your LO? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937172 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 08:42:33 +0000 dc yoga bee 1937172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yikes, I hope you guys are alright! The fact she went on about her way playing is a good sign. Hope everyone is feeling fine this morning! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937099 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 01:13:52 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1937099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh my gosh, I hope you guys are okay! I'm thinking she's fine, but would just keep an eye out for anything out of the ordinary. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937012 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 21:42:40 +0000 78h2o 1937012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: I definitely will. I'm probably also going to set my alarm to check on her during the night. Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1937002 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 21:25:48 +0000 winniebee 1937002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh how scary! My guess is you are both fine - especially if she rebounded quickly. I would just check on her before you go to bed and see how she is doing in the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936997 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 21:22:38 +0000 mrsjyw 1936997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Omg so sorry! Hope you are both ok soon!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936995 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 21:18:52 +0000 78h2o 1936995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JennyG: I will, thanks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936929 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 19:56:39 +0000 JennyG 1936929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: I think it sounds like LO is ok. I would probably call your doc in the morning and see if they want to see you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936922 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 19:53:11 +0000 78h2o 1936922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: I didn't call the OB line. They will have to page a doc, but I could. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936913 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 19:46:34 +0000 youboots 1936913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I fell down the stairs hard at 21 weeks and already had a scheduled ultrasound that day. I went back in for a check 2 days later. My advice would be to call the advice nurse, but it sounds like you already did. So sorry this happened, how scary. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936911 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 19:44:26 +0000 78h2o 1936911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsHansen82: I'm not sure how hard she hit it. It sounded hard, but she seems fine. I called her doctor once when she hit her head and vomited and they said that as long as she didn't have persistent vomiting and was walking and talking fine, I shouldn't bring her in. So I haven't called her doc, since I expect to hear the same thing. I called urgent care and they don't have a Doppler or ultrasound, so I'd only be going there for LO (which I would totally do, but I think she's ok). So I think it is ER or stay home... I think we will probably stay home. I feel a little crampy, but I think it's more my muscles aching. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936884 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 19:16:11 +0000 turquoisemama 1936884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i would be more worried about your LO hitting her head. I don't know how hard it was, but if it was a good fall, I would go in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936875 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 19:04:27 +0000 blackbird 1936875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it still hurts in a few days, get it checked out. Or if you start bleeding. But otherwise just rest a little!! Hope you're all ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936873 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 19:02:22 +0000 sorrycharlie 1936873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oh my gosh! I hope you are okay. I was in an accident around 12 weeks and my OB said had I not heard the HB with my doppler, they would have had me come in to be safe - but that the baby is still in the pelvic bone at that point and likely just fine. they told me to watch for bleeding or cramping.</p> <p>I'm paranoid and probably would call the after-hours line for LO! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936870 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 18:58:28 +0000 Greentea 1936870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope you all are okay! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936869 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 18:56:37 +0000 Jess1483 1936869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: I probably wouldn't go at this age if she was acting fine (younger, I'd have gone.) Poor girl and poor mama! Hope everyone is fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936861 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 18:47:31 +0000 ladybee 1936861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ohmigosh how scary! Honestly I'm a worry wart and would go. But I know I worry to much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936860 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 18:47:04 +0000 MrsRcCar 1936860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would get checked out just to be safe but I am a huge (!!!) worry wart. Hope everything is ok. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-and-i-fell-down-the-stairs#post-1936856 Sun, 09 Nov 2014 18:44:01 +0000 78h2o 1936856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I fell down the basement stairs carrying LO. We both landed hard. She landed on top of me, but her head whipped back and hit the wooden side part of the stairs pretty hard. I hit my hip and elbow hard, but I'm fine. I am 11 weeks pregnant, so just hoping the baby is ok. I know the baby is small and well insulated at this point. J cried really hard at first, but she's playing now and says she is ok. I'm thinking it's probably fine to skip the doctor (urgent care/ER)...do you agree? </p>
