    This morning I was playing with DD. She jumped on my abdomen, and it hurt. I rested for a while, checked the h/b on doppler, they were fine. I am still feeling some pains, and a BH cx. When I called the Dr's office, they said I would have to go to ER to be evaluated.

    Has anyone else had this happen? I really don't want to go to ER if there is no need.
    Help!

    We're you having BH before this happened?

    I think you are probably okay not to go. But if you feel like it will help you feel better for peach of mind, then I would go. Why couldn't you go to your Dr.s office, why did they say for you to go to the ER?

    I started having BH in the last week, only 1-2 per day.
    I figure the Dr's office wouldn't be able to get me in today, since it is so late. That is probably why they said ER.

    I think I will wait it out. I will be at the hospital tonight for childbirth class, so I might just wait and ask the instructor.

    :hug99: hoping it all works out for you. I'd do what you said, wait and ask the instructor tonight, but definitely take it easy now.

    [SIZE=10pt]OUCH!!! Sometimes those little ones just get too roudy! I think you will be fine. I would ask your instructor tonight and if you are still getting BH tomorrow, I would call first thing in the morning and make an appointment. Your babies are pretty secure in their little swimming pools. Good luck, take it easy, and feel better![/SIZE]

    Do what you need to for piece of mind. I fell down the stairs when I was about 23 weeks pregnant and everything was fine.

    I would do what the doctor's office suggests. For pregnant women, especially with twins, the ER is usually pretty quick to see you, and you can tell them that your Dr. told to go there to be evaluated. I know it's a pain to go there when you feel it might not be necessary, but that's what I would do, especially because you said you still feel some pain.

    Whatever you decide, I hope you're fine anyway.
