Knock to stomach

[Add11]

Hi, I walked into a gate this morning hitting my stomach, it hurt for about 5 mins but is ok now.

I've felt movement since so I'm hoping all is ok, I have a midwife appointment tomoro should I mention it then?

Yes I would, just to drop it into conversation so your midwife knows and can advise if you need to watch out for anything. Good news on the movement though xx

If you mentioning it here then it's obviously bothering you, so of course you should mention it to the mw. She won't eat you alive, although some mw are bit scary! They might be able to check thing out depending on how many weeks you are.

Hi, you've probably attended the appointment by now. But yes i would definitely tell them. Don't hesitate to let your midwife know anything that your concerned about because you'll feel relief once you tell them = less internal worry for you = less stress to baby.

I fell down concrete steps one night, early on in my first pregnancy, hurting my back. I was so worried i'd harmed the baby i couldn't sleep. The next day from work, I called my midwife and asked for an urgent scan - got it. The relief to know all was ok helped my healing hugely.

Pregnancy is our one and only time to bake our little person just right, so annnnything at all on your mind, let someone know Docs and midwives are so used to questions and worries from us mums.

Best wishes to you xo
