I took a tumble...

This was yesterday...

I was taking the dog bed downstairs to our basement area to lock her up in the hallway between the bathroom and my office, the reason I was putting her down there was b/c the cleaning lady (who is a god sent)comes once a month to clean (ie: scrub). The dog hates strangers in our house while we are not home, well she hates strangers in our house period.

So as I was walking down, her blanket fell out of her bed and I slipped on it, and did a complete tumble (forward roll) on the steps and landed (thank goodness) on my butt.

I panicked at first, I finally got up so shaken that my pulse and blood pressure was probably through the roof and the baby was going wild... she never moved so much ever.

I checked her heart rate which was fine, I was not leaking or bleeding or anything... Called my mom who told me to calm down and if I start leaking anything or feel contractions to call the DR. If I had landed on my belly I would have called right away... So the rest of the day my tail bone hurt along with my normal pubic bone pain. I looked very silly walking.

By lunch, I was at work and I went to the bathroom and lost it in a full blow tears, I think it hit me that the fall could have been much worst and I could have done some real damage. I kept thinking I worked so hard for her I want her to be healthy... I never did call the DR. I am just stiff and woke up this morning in alot of pain. in my butt!

I keep checking her HB and have been resting as much as possible ... except for the shopping spree Avery and I went on today at OLD NAVY. Was not in the plan, bought too much.

Now as I am sitting here, I keep thinking I am leaking fluid, know I am not b/c it is my normal discharge (Sorry TMI) but now so much has been running through my head. Maybe I should have called the DR and let them know. But last time I fell they checked her heart beat and set me on my way.

I am having a little Mommy guilt over this. As you can see.

I do have an appointment on monday and I will tell them then.

On the up side, I bought a baby sling (custom) on esty for $11.50, so if I hate it I can just chalk it up but I also bought a baby wrap for $30.00 so guess we will see which one I like the best.

Oh honey. I'm so sorry you took a tumble. I am however, glad to know that you and baby are ok.

I would have been scared out of my mind as well.

I hope you feel better soon.

LOVE YOU, TOO!
