Yeah, it hurts like hell...:(

You can ask KTA, he thinks it's funny.
I got up to go to the bathroom and ran into a portable closet rack in my bedroom. Broke the hell outta my little toe.

I have done this twice. I called him for sympathy and he laughed.:(

There is nada you can do for it. It just has to heal on it's own.

I broke my little toe the day I found out I was preggers with my 1st son - doc (same doc that I went to earlier that day for the pregnancy test lol) tied a piece of gauze around the toe and tugged on it to "reset it" - then he taped the little toe to the next toe and told me to keep ice on it and elevated as much as possible. It was extremely tender for a long time but it finally healed - I was able to wear tennis shoes (not Nike's but the "white kind") within a few days but I walked "gingerly" Seems like I was continuously running into chair legs and stumping my toes the entire time it was healing....... I hope you heal quickly........

I broke my big toe when I was six months pregnant. I couldn't wear my flip flops.:(

Talk about hurt! I was doing something I shouldn't have been doing and it could have been a lot worse.

I've broken my right little toe twice. Just gotta let it heal. It sucks but mine healed fairly quick. Good luck.:cool:

oh yeah

when it first happened, i knew immediately that it was bad---didn't feel anything like a stubbed toe

unfortunately, i didn't know it was broken until today; i had duty yesterday (touring barracks full of young marines for 24 hours straight) so of course i limped about three miles all told over the course of the day/night.

then this morning, medical told me it was broken for sure, and not to walk on it!

;) :(

a little too late!

wow - that should make it better :D

seriously - take it easy and hopefully it will heal quickly.. you're gonna need both feet soon while you're walking the floors in the middle of the night with the baby ;)
