Bad Car Accident Possibly Pregnant
Posted: 06-01-06 23:54pm

Ok im three days away from my period and
the dollar store test was so faint I had
to squint hard. I took this 20 mintures
ago.. See the thing is this afternoon at
3 oclock I got into a huge accident and I
think totalled my car. About a 15 mins
later I was getting terrible pains down
there.. Do you think if I was pregnant
that the accident could cause me to loose
the baby or do you jus think the muscles
went into shock to protect the baby..
Anyone have an idea

It depends. Totalling your car doesn't
tell us what injuries you personally
sustained in your accident. From what it
sounds like, you weren't taken to the
hospital...So i'm assuming you were ok. I
hope you are ok.
A major concern in car accidents is
usually when you are much further along
than possibly being less than 4 weeks
pregnant. Considering the fetus would be
very, very, very tiny at this point (if
you are pregnant), then i'm pretty sure
you are ok. The cramps you are feeling
could be your period or normal pregnancy
feelings.
You should call your doctor and go in to
be checked just to be safe!
Good luck.

Ususally if you total your car, they would
take you to the emerg room anyway. And
they'd ask you if you were pregnant and if
you didn;t know they'd do a blood test.
(happened to a couple of people I know)
so if you were able to get up and walk
away with no one wanting to bring youto
the hosp and you are prob only 4 weeks
along, things should be fine.
I had 2 minor accidents (with my horrible
driver friend) while preggo, one at 2
months and one at 8 1/2 months. My son
is fine.

Hey health forum medical question
yourself.. I hope that someone totals
your car.. And your ar freaking out with
cops. Emts and towers in your face. As
well as traffic buildup. And I really
think you need to take a new view and
think that maybe since you werent in the
situation you dont know waht you are
talking about.. I got checked this
morning and everything is fine.. I have
a big suv and I wasnt touched or harmed..
You really need to be more considerate for
other people.. I bet your just unhappy
with your life and feel that you need to
compinsate for that by making others feel
bad. We come here for posetive
reinforcement not to be told negative
heartbreaking things. One day your going
to say something to the wrong person and
there gonna kill themselves.. How would
you feel knowing that you are responsible
or could be responsible.. Please dont
respond to my section anymore!!!.

I got into a horrible wreck with an .S.U.V
when I was about 3 weeks pregnant. I
didn't know I was pregnant yet though. I
came $150 form totalling my car.
The airbags didn't come out due to a
defect, so we're taking it up with
.Mazda.
But in reference to your question, I think
the baby should be fine. Depending on if
the baby is even implanted into your
uterus yet makes a big difference. But
i'm sure you're fine. Go home, relax and
test again in the morning. I don't know
why you would experience sharp cramps down
there...Unless you're further along than
you know.
Good luck!
Sarah

i'm sorry you were in an accident. I am
sorry you were scared. But, honestly, for
the health of you .A.N.D your child,
always err on the side of caution and get
checked. A visit to the hospital will
save you a ton of problems in the future
(with the insurance co. Trust me on this.
You need to be checked out!).

Thanks ig.. Yea I did.. Actually it
would have been havic for navy. The emt
did a semi check but not the whole nine
yards.. I did go the next morning where
everything was covered by the navy.. It
was ok.. Thanks for the concern.. And at
the time the thought didnt cross my mind
that I could be pregnant.. It was my mom
who brought that to my attention that
night.. But yea I did find that I was
pregnant and that everything is ok..
Thanks

Actually I meant the car insurance. Heh.
Because you would be compensated for any
and all medical costs by the car
insurance. That is why people have car
insurance ;) it isn't just for smashed up
vehicles anymore. It is also for smashed
up bodies!
I'm glad you are ok! Have a happy healthy
pregnancy.

Ok sandra.. I went that following
morning.. I didnt think about being
pregnant until my mother mentioned it
after the accident.. Umm I also have to
be careful because navy doesnt cover caca
like that.. Maybe before you jumped down
my throat you should have asked me
questions. I only wrote this dumb
statement slightly after the accident.. O
and the emt had to do their little check
up I just didnt want the whole enchalda at
the time.. I was just asking if it could
have an affect and cause a miscarriage
because two months ago I did. And well I
dont know what to tell you.. I just dont
need people jumping down my throat like
you so quickly did. And so fast assumed I
didnt care.. What the heck do you know..
Look im sorry to have been that harsh but
you had me so p"o"ed.
Good luck to you and thanks for you
opinion!

Actually....When I wrecked my car..The emt
did a once over on me and I refused to go
to the hospital. I am in the middle of a
lawsuit against the guy I hit. The
insurance co. Found him at fault. I went
to the hospital the next morning on the
emt's advice and had to be prescribed pain
meds. Due to the severe whip lash...I
just didn't feel it right away.
Sooo...What i'm getting at is I guess
every state is different. I'm not gonna
settle for anything less that 5,000...But
I refused medical treatment from the emt
and it has had nothing to do with my
lawsuit.

Please be careful on what medication you
are taking if you are pregnant, I realize
that we all don't think clearly in an
emergency such as an accident as we are
generally not in our right minds, the main
thing is is that noone got seriously
injured and hopefully your pregnancy will
be okay with your pregnancy as I do
realize how horrible it can be so we will
just be postive! Please be sure and
keep us posted!
The best to you and yours!

i'm sorry that you were in a car accident
and i'm glad that everything is okay with
you now, but I just wanted to say that
no one is ever responsible for someone
else's suicide. Implying that
someone else could be is just cruel and
wrong... Sorry, that just really
irritated me. If a mother screams at
her son to make his bed and he goes out
and hangs himself from a tree, are you
going to tell her it's her fault? I
think not. He had a mental disorder.
