I think that I might be 5 weeks pregnant (still waiting on blood work results), and yesterday I accidentally hit my lower abdomen on the corner of the bathroom sink as I slipped. Is that really something to worry about? I have been getting cramps, and I have spotted but I am still waiting on blood work results.

you are probably fine but if you are worried or if you cramp or bleed call the dr right away. the baby is protected by the amniotic sac and is not as fragile as you might think.... just don't make a habit of falling. :)

Technically, the abdominal muscle, uterus and fluid surrounding the baby should provide plenty of cushion to protect your little peanut from being hurt... but I have no idea how hard you hit yourself or what other circumstances might be contributing to why you are cramping and bleeding. I would call the office where you had the test done and let them know about the slip, the cramping and the spotting.. THEY will tell you what to do.

well, if you have been cramping and spotting then I would defiantly go to the Dr. Well, but your still waiting on blood work results, I would be calling my Dr. and telling them exactly what is going on. It does not take that long to get results. An ept takes like 4 minutes and a blood test in the hospital only took me like 2 hours and that was it. So if I was you, I'd be getting on my Dr. and explaining everything to him. GOOD LUCK!

I'm assuming that you did not go to the doctor after you fell. This leads me to believe that it wasn't too bad. Because you are only 5 weeks, the spotting and cramps could be a minor menstrual cycle. You can take a pregnancy test to confirm the prgnancy. To be on the safe side you should let your doctor know about the fall.

go to the emergency room as soon as possible and take an emergency preg. test. Then from there you can worry if you harmed the baby or yourself. But don't worry with the bleeding and and the pregnancy just begging you may not be pregnant.

At 5 weeks it would take a pretty major bump to affect baby.Just to be safe call ur emergency department and let them know what has happened,they are better qualified to judge potential danger to ur baby.

I would check with the DR if you have spotted... That could mean anything and to make sure its not your baby, get it checked out.

Your most probably fine at this early stage but get it checked for peace of mind.

the baby is pretty protected in there (if you are pregnant) i dont think you have anything to worry about, but you should tell your doctor just in case
