I fell down the stairs on Friday at work, (27 weeks pregnant). I went to hospital and had my badly injured leg checked as had a lot of pain. Just turns out to be soft tissue damage. No checks were done on baby as I had no pain/bleeding and felt movement.
I'm now ( two days later) experiencing mild period like aches and a strong pain in my lower back (right hand side) almost as if it's at the top of my bum. Every time I take a step it's a sharp twinge and when I'm not on the move it's a constant ache. Laying/sitting/standing doesn't aid pain.
I have asked employer if they could manage without me tomorrow as I am in a lot of pain and feel anxious about returning ( looking after two children) they have said I am needed at work. Boss told me after the accident not to worry about work as they are around but now has changed tune.
Any advice ?
