do you think this could have harmed my baby?

no- I know this because when I was about 6 months along with my 3rd baby, my 3 year old son- who is all boy by the way- jumped on top of my belly with full force. I don't think he meant to, but he is just rough like that. Baby was all healthy- they will just go with the fluid their in. I think it would take something like a car accident to harm them. No worries!

probably didn't harm the baby.. i have a 40 pound dog that jumped on me (when i was lying in bed) when i was 30 weeks... i also fell a week later.. i was checked out by the doc (you can always go in and get checked out if you're nervous about something!) but everything was fine.. the baby has lots of amniotic fluid for protection around it, and at 15 weeks they are still small and protected very well in our tummies.. like i said though, if you're really worried, talk to your doc about it and they will just hook you up to a fetal monitor to make sure the baby's heart rate and everything looks ok... sounds like you will be ok though.. my dog jumps up on me all the time (standing) and everything is just perfect. good luck

No this will not harm the baby. right now your baby's kind of small and plus its protected by the sac that its in. when i was 6 months my cousin ran into my stomach plus jumped on my back and hes 8 and weighs alot. i thought it would of hurt the baby but it didn't. it normal to be worried. but every things fine.you'll be reassured the next time you go to the doctor and you hear the baby's heart beat.

When I was about 17 weeks I fell on my stomach pretty hard. I am an at-risk pregnancy anyway so I immediately called the doctor. They told me to keep a watch for bleeding. So if you start bleeding get somewhere. They also informed me that the baby is well insulated in our tummies.

No, I know how you feel though, I was just at my OB/GYN yesterday and told him everytime I changed my daughters diaper, she managed to kick me in the belly, I try to avoid the kicks, but sometimes she gets me really good.
He told me the baby is very very protected by the amniotic fluid and the sack it is enclosed in. He said it would need something closer to a karate kick or falling dfown stairs to cause major damage, even then, some mothers have fallen down stairs and have gone full term. I know they say try and avoid it, but like you, we have pets and we have other children and you know what, we are pregnant, so sometimes we are clumsy.

Your body acts as protection for your unborn baby. When I was pregnant with my oldest child my sister got mad and kicked me hard in the stomach, I went ahead and checked up with my doc but she was just fine. It takes a rather fearce impact to hurt a baby in the womb. Our body's are amazing things with lots of tissue to protect the baby. Call your doctor for reasurrance if your just not sure. Its always better to be safe.

No that baby is so protect the fluid, the baby is just floating in the fluid and gets bounced around.
Congratulations!!!!

I doubt it. If you're not bleeding or having painful contractions, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
The same thing happened to me around the same time and my baby is just fine.
Don't stress yourself out.
