Had a day yesterday…

So yesterday was a scary day for me. Starting around 1am and not ending the scariness til just after 9pm…. So I was 23 weeks 3 days yesterday and around 1am I went to the bathroom and when I was laying back down I THOUGHT I saw something big brown and hairy crawling up my side and I FREAKED. (After extensive reflecting, I came to the conclusion it was prolly my middle-of-the-butt length brown hair.) But before I came to that conclusion, while I was panicking and trying to get my shirt off while SCREAMING, I fell…twice. The first time on my ass and the second I was trying to run but my body got ahead of my feet and I fell forwards. I managed to get myself to rotate before hitting the ground, so my left hip hit first, then the left side of my belly. Now, VERY shortly after, I could feel my son moving, so given that and the fact the my hip took most of the impact, I thought everything was fine 🤷🏼‍♀️ . So I went about my day as usual but I called my OB to tell them what happened and they suggested I come in. They gave me a 3pm appointment and when I went, the dr said I shoulda went to the hospital cause my placenta may have fully, or partially, detached. Which is very dangerous and would require serious intervention. They said they couldn’t squeeze me in on the ultrasound schedule that day though so to come back tomorrow morning. I figured if they were willing to wait til the next morning that it would be fine to do that so I made the appointment and went home. But on my way I googled if a baby could survive with a detached placenta for over 24hours and google said he was VERY unlikely to survive that long with detached placenta so I made the executive decision to go to the ER. I’m sorry, I’m not waiting to find out whether or not my baby will die!! And now I know that I shouldn’t have even waited as long as I did! 😩😭 I feel like a shit mom 😩😭 but I ALSO feel like the people who answer the calls need to be educated enough to tell an UNEDUCATED woman in my position that they need to go to the hospital! I just IGNORANTLY thought, well he’s moving just as much as usual, his heart rate is 148 (I checked with my Doppler) so he’s obv fine. Not even THINKING about my placenta. The only other thing that crossed my mind was my water breaking, but I wasn’t leaking any fluid or bleeding so I dismissed that as well. Anyway, they checked me out at the ER. They performed an ultrasound to check my placenta and cervix etc and said everything was fine (THANK GOD) and sent me home just after 9pm. So that was my very scary day 😩😭 ONE good thing came of it, though…I had the NICEST ultrasound tech. They’re not even supposed to let you see the screen, let alone print you ANY pics…well my tech not only let me watch EVERYTHING, showed me ALL of my son in more detail than even my anatomy scan a few weeks ago, but she went above and beyond to not only SHOW me several 3D shots of Cannon’s sweet face, but she even PRINTED me one as well as a regular one of his hand by his face and told me to hide it or she’d get in trouble! So sweet!! Those are the kinda healthcare workers we need and I love so very much! So now I have a couple of REALLY sweet pics that I absolutely LOVE 🩵🩵🩵 *will attach*
