I fell - twice! : - (

I'll be 11 weeks tomorrow and I've fallen twice in the past two days. I'm not going to lie, I've always been a tad clumsy, but this is bad, even for me! The first one I could've seen coming, I was jet lagged and carrying a suitcase on an escalator, it was a recipe for disaster. But last night, I tripped up the kerb . I fell onto my knee which is now bruised, scraped and swollen. I felt so sick afterward, almost vomitted and then I couldn't stop crying for about a half hour afterward, which DH attributed to hormones

I know pregnancy does strange things to your balance, but not this early on, right? Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks. I just had some pink spotting when I went to the bathroom I'm really hoping all is okay.

Go to the Drs now. Better to get checked out.

You should go and get checked, but to be honest the chances of the baby being put at risk due to the falls is very very unlikely. They are very well protected in there

Hope everything is OK, let us know, won't you?

I'm a total clutz too (normally and especially now) and fell down my spiral stairs last week. Managed to catch myself before falling forward or onto my belly, but bashed up my legs pretty badly and was convinced I'd broken a couple of toes. Very scary, but think the LOs are pretty well cushioned and protected in there.
