I slipped and fell in the driveway this morning. Now I'm feeling every twinge and thinking each time that I hurt the babies when I fell. I know, they are floating around in sacs of fluid, it takes more than a simple fall to hurt them. I've resisted googling "falling while pregnant" so far. I'm not sure how much longer I can hold out.
I feel bad for Mr. M; he's been out in the driveway every morning shoveling and salting, trying to avoid this exact situation. Now a chinook has moved in, everything is melting so there are little slicks of ice in the morning that look like they are wet, not frozen. He feels so guilty but it's not like he hasn't been diligent. I tried to make it seem like it wasn't as bad but my skinned knee and arm kind of give it away. I feel bad because I've been bugging him about how he's been treating me like a baby since the IVF worked and it turns out he's probably saved me from my klutzy self more than once. Everything is fine. This is just a "have gone more than three weeks without an ultrasound" paranoia. Everything is fine.
***UPDATE*** Could not resist google, results were surprisingly comforting (for once). Called my doctor anyway, he said wait and see if anything changes (cramping spotting, etc.) and try not to worry.
Pregnant with twins after IVF.

This happened to me when I was was pregnant with my twins. I took a major sliding header on a dry deck no less and landed with a thud. I went to work had a panic attack, cried in front of everyone at a meeting, but the only thing wounded was my pride! Twins were a-ok! So it is not only you, and at least you have ice to blame!
