Hi everyone I Am 22 weeks pregnant and tonight while standing up from the bath I slipped and fell back wards on my bum it wasn't from a height probs from a crouch position do you think I'm okay? I'm stressing because I know falling during pregnancy can be bad. I'm not in pain no bleeding ect I have a anterior placenta so the movements are very minimal just now.
Do you think I'll be okay

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I'm sure you'll be ok but you can phone the midwives at the hospital for advice. They won't mind.

Is baby's movement the same still?

Sorry just re-read that you don't feel much movement.

This happened to me when I was further on (34 weeks ish maybe). I was bending over to clean paint off my foot in the shower so fell from a similar height tk you.

they did ask me to go in and get checked out, and gave me a shot of anti D (as I am rhesus negative and baby was positive). They monitored heart beat etc for an hour so then I went home and all was fine.

I’d recommended calling your midwife/hospital to get advice.
