Possibly fractured tailbone

lindsey61811

So I was walking into work this morning when I slipped on ice and fell hard directly on my tailbone.That was at 7 and my tailbone is still in as much pain as it was when it first happened 5 hours ago. I can usually handle pain pretty well and I can't believe how much pain I'm in. Sitting, walking up stairs, and bending over are unbearable.

I'm trying not to worry that I harmed the baby because I know he or she is very well protected and I haven't had any cramping or pains in that area... I'm more concerned about how to deal with this pain. All we can really take for pain is Tylenol right? And I don't see the point of rushing to the doctor because if there's a fracture there's nothing they can do for it and I'm under the impression that you can't have Xrays during pregnancy? Correct me if I'm wrong.

I know I've read some ladies on here saying they've had tailbone injuries during pregnancy.. Any advice on what I can do to not be miserable?
