Do you need to a checkup on the fetus if you sprained your ankle

Hi does anyone sprained their ankle during pregnancy? Do you need to arrange a checkup with doctor if you do not have any abdominal pain or bleeding?

Did you fell on your back /bum / tummy? Or it is just like a roll over of the ankle movement? Just continue to monitor your baby’s movement. Anything amiss go to the A&E immediately

I fell down stairs and sprained my ankle at week 7. No tummy pain or bleeding. Did not arrange for checkup and baby turns out fine.

You can let your gynae know, week advise for a peace of mind. Can call in.

I guess you can still do so if you need a peace of mind.

Should be OK, but do consult a doctor if pain persists
