Do I have reason to worry?

[district12ravenclaw]

This afternoon, Steve, Steve's dad, and I were on our way to BRU to pick up our furniture. The turn lane into the shopping center has an unprotected left turn. We were at the red light, and when it turned green, Steve's dad started to go, but when he realized that he didn't have a green arrow, he stopped really abruptly. He couldn't have been going faster than about 5-10mph. The seatbelt was a little bit loose (we were riding in a 70's van, and it only had lap belts), but I did hit it a little bit when he slammed on the brakes. I feel fine, though I think I may be a tiny bit sore from where I hit the belt, and I've felt the baby moving around since it happened, but Steve is worried. Should I get it checked out, or am I fine?

I think you will be fine, your baby is pretty well cushioned in there. When I was pg with Savannah, Wesley hit/push my belly a few times.;)

I'm sure you are fine, unless you start having a lot of cramping or bleeding.

i am sure your fine, specially since you've felt the baby, but call the dr and see what they say to do.

I bet the baby is fine. I would call the doctor just for peace of mind, and for nothing else, just so they know just in case.

Don't worry sweetie! Baby is well insulated in there. Heck, I fell on my tummy going up the subway stairs and everything was A-OK. If you can feel the baby moving then I'm positive everything is okay.

Still though, for peace of mind you can always call your doc and see what he/she says.

As long as you're feeling the baby and there's no cramping or bleeding, I'd say you're fine. I know it's scarey though.

I'm with everyone else...I'm sure you're fine, but call your Dr so they have the incident on file, just in case. :)
