Thanks so much to everyone who has commented and emailed me about my fall. I really appreciate it!
I am feeling much better - I have been back to the surgeon twice to have the bandages changed and will get the stitches out next Friday. I was not very mobile for the first two days but am up and around now, even went out for lunch on Thursday and walked a few blocks.
This took a lot more out of me than I would have expected. I was very tired the first few days and not exactly a model patient (my husband may have regretted taking the day off on Tuesday... not that he will admit it, haha), I am not happy being inactive for any period of time.
Once the stitches are out I can swim again, and a couple weeks later I can start again with yoga. There's light at the end of the tunnel!
One interesting thing about having a knee injury while pregnant, I remember reading that every extra pound of weight a person carries puts the pressure of 10 pounds worth of weight on the knee... nice timing for a knee injury, huh? I am certainly carrying a few extra pounds these days if you know what I mean...
