I fell down while pregnant and landed on my butt

The process of pregnancy not only requires careful care, but also requires the pregnant woman herself to be extra careful and never fall. Falling can be said to be a taboo for pregnant women. Once the force of the fall is enough to cause bleeding, it will inevitably lead to miscarriage, so you must be careful when walking. Some people may ask, if a pregnant woman falls and lands on her butt, will she definitely have a miscarriage? This is not certain, and it has a lot to do with the situation at the time.

First of all, we can infer from the posture that the buttocks landed first that the pregnant woman must have slipped and fell. This kind of fall is generally more forceful, which means that the fetus must have felt a vibration. However, it is still unclear whether the fetus will be miscarried as a result.

Because the fetus is in the amniotic fluid, one of the functions of the amniotic fluid is to buffer external forces. That is, when a pregnant woman falls or turns over, the amniotic fluid will play a protective role and protect the fetus from being affected. Therefore, if a pregnant woman falls, it does not necessarily mean that the fetus will miscarry. However, if the force of the fall is too great, it will be difficult for the fetus to remain unscathed even with the protection of the amniotic fluid.

However, if it is in the first three months of pregnancy and the fetus has too little amniotic fluid, if the pregnant woman slips and falls, the fetus will be in danger. Because the fetus is still unstable at this time and has little amniotic fluid, a fall will have a great impact on the fetus. Therefore, doctors will advise pregnant women to be extra careful during the first three months of pregnancy and never fall. Of course, this only means that the chance of miscarriage is slightly higher if the fetus falls in the first three months of pregnancy.

In fact, no matter how badly a pregnant woman falls, the fetus will not necessarily miscarry. Although the fetus will be affected to some extent, the specific impact depends on the actual situation. Generally speaking, if vaginal bleeding occurs immediately after a fall, the chance of miscarriage is very high.
