No. But I was always so paranoid! I had some issues going into the ocean at nine months when there were tons of waves and a very uneven ground .... but falling into the water wouldn't have mattered much anyway.

I fell multiple times, TG there were no issues with the falls. Sciatic nerve was horrible and I would be walking along then poof right leg no longer controlled by my brain and down I would go. I never got hurt but that nerve was sure painful.

Yes, several times. It was a very icy winter and I slipped several times on the ice but just hit my bottom so it wasn't too bad, the first time it happened I just sat there and cried.
The worst was at my baby shower when I was 37 weeks pregnant. One of the dogs was on a long leash and got wrapped around my chair and then started chasing something. My chair got knocked out from under me and I went flying back in my dress. My grandmother said she saw the baby kicking while I was falling. Luckily baby was very active after that so we weren't too worried.

I tripped while walking my dog at 38 weeks and fell forward on my belly. LO was still moving like normal, and I didn't think I was having contractions, so I convinced myself it was fine and didn't call my doctor. That night I started to worry and called the doctor. I wound up in the hospital being monitored for about 16 hours. Turned out I was clueless and didn't realize that I was having pretty regular contractions. Everything ended up being fine, and LO didn't arrive for 3 more weeks. Moral of this story: if you fall on your belly, call your doctor immediately

@MsMamaBear: oh no! Jelly fish stings are painful!

No, and I am trying to be careful. I slipped in ice the other day but managed to regain my balance and not fall. I try to wear sensible shoes and walk carefully so I hope I can avoid any falls.
