Today i fell, not sure what to do.

So today my husband and I were cleaning out the car, and I was carrying in a thick bed spread kind of blanket. Right inside the front door we have a dog gate, just to make sure our great Dane doesn't escape, I've never had an issue with the gate in the year and a half I've been around it in the house. But today my foot had managed to get caught on the top of gate, and I fell onto the hardwood floor. I hit my wrist first, trying to catch myself, then when down to my elbows and left knee then completely onto my shoulder and hip. I'm a little sore after it but I managed to pull the blanket under my stomach during the fall. I've read into it for a bit since I fell, and I don't feel any abnormal pain (it feels like the regular cramps I get when she shifts around) but I haven't felt her kick since the fall, which struck me as odd since she was being very active before the fall. I'm 23 weeks currently. Any advice?

Please go get you and the baby check out

I also am 23 weeks pregnant. If you haven’t felt a kick for about 2 hours. Should definitely go get checked out. Try eating something cold or sugary maybe you’ll feel her move soon.

I’m also 23 weeks pregnant too

I would go ahead into L&D to get checked out just to be safe

Definitely go get it checked out asap if I were you

I would go get checked to ease my mind.

I would definitely go in! They need to make sure baby is ok and that nothing happened to the placenta.

They will probably hook you up for monitoring for a few hours or do an ultrasound. It’s not worth risking anything

Call and make an appt. For a peace of mind 💕

Blood in baby’s poo

Ladies, I’ve just changed my baby and noticed some blood on his poo and on the diaper. The poo was quite soft, not pebbly and he wasnt straining or anything like that. Anyone had anything like this before? What is it? Shall i call the GP?

Help

Hi mamas! Has anyone dealt with their baby’s hair clumping at the back of their head? I tried baby oil to loosen it but no luck so far. Any advice?

Struggling

My baby’s 5 weeks old and I am really struggling. I knew it would be hard but it’s so much harder in reality. She won’t be put down without waking up after 5 minutes. Won’t be put down at night either. I can’t do anything without doing it one handed holding her. Every night she spends hours being stressed and crying and really difficult to console, fighting sleep and nothing I do seems to help her for more than 30 seconds. I’m just putting this out there wondering if others are going through the same. It’s a lot.

Wake windows

My 12 week old can just about do 60mins. I've tried extending it but she gets overtired really quickly.

What's everyone else's wake windows and how many hours are your babies napping?

Naps etc

Hi
I have 15 week old little girl and I was just wanting advice of what other people
Do about naps in the day, she is a contact Napper, is anyone else’s baby like this or do they let you put them down, or do people do naps in the next to me with a camera etc?

Just wanting to know other people in my situations routine of how many naps do they have a day, last nap time and night time routine? We was getting somewhere with sleep, up to 5 hour stretches but over last week we have gone back to 3 hourly feeds on the dot, any advice will help!

Thanks

Is it really necessary to change the nipple flow?

Hi moms ! Is it really necessary to change the flow of the nipples ? Or I can just stay with the same one ? Also, is okay that I use the same bottles and nipples for my next baby?
