Please, I'm so worried

[TopCat1]

Some of you know, I have just found out I was pregnant a few days ago (you were kind to answer my post). But this morning I was in a bit of an accident. A bus pulled out of its lane and hit the front of my car (I have only passed my test a few weeks), so although I wasn't hurt, every inch of me was shaking, and I was crying, my little girl (2yrs old) was sleeping in the carseat in the back.

I'm so worried that the shock and state I got myself into is going to affect my pregnancy, as I have never been that shaken in my life. Would this affect my pregnancy? I'm really worried and getting myself quite upset in work.

Thank you in advance.

Im so sorry about your accident but you really must try and calm down.Have a hot cup of tea with a bit of suger,grab a duvet and curl up on the sofa till you are less shaky.Any accident,no natter how small is always upsetting.As long as you are ok that is the main thing,the car can be repaired.

Give your doctor a call, they will be able to ease your mind over the phone, the more you worry about it the more stressed you might get, pick up the phone and ask.

I am sure it will be fine, but better to double check. x

Hi TopCat, please please don't worry, babies are very tough little things even at this early stage, probably more so. I think it would take a bit more than this to cause any real harm but please go along and see your G.P or midwife just to put your mind at rest completely. Don't get any more stressed than you already are X

Obviously your stress is inderstandable, but nature makes sure baby is very well protected from bumps and bangs that can happen to mum. have a chat with your doctor who will check you over. You are bound to be more upset as both a new driver, and an expectant mum, but things will be fine, on both counts.

Thank you all so much, I have calmed abit, and I think its the pregnancy hormones that have made me a little more shakey than normal. Ive had a good cup of tea, and my body is starting to relax.

Ive got a docs appointment soon to get my pregnancy confirmed (took home tests) so I will talk to the doctor then.

Again thank you.
