Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
As per your history,you are getting dizzy and losing balance after falling.
I would suggest you to take some good rest and be relieved,because its common to get these symptoms after a fall.
If your symptoms exacerbate over a period of time,better to consult a neurologist for further evaluation and get one skull X-ray done
Since fetal movements are good no need to worry about it.
Thank you.
