It hurt like hell at the time and it's not hurting now but I'm getting all paranoid, Do you think it's ok, It has moved since.

I fell ontop of my bump (DD1) when my husband chased me with a spider, two days before she was born - she was overdue, so not caused by fall!!!

If baby has moved then everything should be fine - they are very well insulated with all the water around them. Call your midwife and they will reassure you if you are still worried.

You poor thing. Don't worry, baby will be fine. All that fluid, it's like one lovely cushion. Plus you have felt him/her move, so no worries. Are you ok though?

You probably hurt a lot more than dd/ds!! They're nicely surrounded by water and tummy, it more than likely felt like a ripple effect! Don't panic, I threw myself down the stairs when 34 weeks with dd, I ached like hell but she was fine! But... if in doubt contact midwife (but I really don't think there should be a problem [smile[)

Thanks for your kind replies
It's def. moving just like it was b4 and I'm not hurting anymore so I feel much better now.
All that you have said makes sense
Thanks again [much less paranoid emoticon]
