Toddler knee'd me hard in belly...

[Moet]

So my 22 lb toddler jumped on me knee-first directly on my uterus. I'm 14 weeks now. Just worried because I have been having aching and random sharp pains ever since (last 4 hours). I know in theory baby is well protected but it was a direct blow. Anyone else have this happen in a previous pregnancy? So hard to contain a toddler that wants to use me as a jungle gym.

In reality, it's unlikely to have done anything more than bruise or cause you to suddenly clench your muscles and pull a few, which is probably what's causing the pains. But, honestly, I'd go straight in to get checked out.

Agreed unless you started bleeding and cramping baby is well cushioned. I just had a private u/s and she was showing me how no matter how hard or deep I like in with my finger I can't reach the sac/disturb the baby but it was fun watching my innards move hahaha

Ya that's reasurring. I've read a few stories now of other ladies That had a baby or dog etc jump on them and baby was fine. I feel normal this morning and never had bleeding so I'm not worried anymore. Just going to have to be more on guard next time around the little one!
