Falling Down....

I fell down walking down the stairs the other day. I landed on my back bone, that bone was sore for a couple of days. Luckily I only fell down three stairs and landed on my back and not on my abdomen, thank god. It still scared me a bit, so the following day I made an appointment with the Ob/Gyn, just to make sure everything was okay. When I got there, the nurse asked me why I was there before my regular OB appointment, I told her what happened she stated that the doctor will check my cervix to make sure it's still closed. As soon as the doctor came in he checked my cervix followed by the baby's heartbeat, at first he could not find the heartbeat but finally did.

I have to say that being pregnant has made me prone to forgetfulness, tiredness and unbalancing my center of gravity. I hear it's normal but it's scary and I need to be very careful from now on.

Now when I walk I walk carefully and I hold the stair railings when I walk down.
