   Jewel is out of the hospital, tweets that she and her baby are fine after 2-car crash

Singer Jewel, who is pregnant with her first child, was involved in a two-car crash over the weekend, with the front part of her car being almost completely wrecked in it. She’s now out of the hospital, and both mother and child are doing well.

At the time we reported on the crash, Jewel’s rep had only said that the star and her unborn child were being tested, hinting that she was not in a serious condition.

Jewel is now confirming this on Twitter, saying she’d been let go from the hospital and, though she’s sore all over, she’s thankful nothing happened to her and her baby.

“Hey everyone-just got released from the ER & my Dr’s office- everything is fine-me & the baby r ok- thanx 4 all your thoughts & prayers,” Jewel wrote shortly after she was let go from the hospital.

However, for the next few days, she will have to take better care of herself and not put a strain on herself.

“Dr said no working out- so I’m going to take it easy this weekend. Just a little sore and banged up- but feeling so blessed this morning,” the singer added.

Aside from being very thankful for fans’ support, Jewel is also very happy she was in Cadillac, because she knows it was the car that saved her life.

“1 thing I do know is my car saved my & baby’s life-definitely going 2 get another Cadillac SRX! It absorbed all the damage & kept me safe!” the singer gushed.

Indeed, seeing how the front and the passenger seat parts were almost completely damaged in the crash (a volunteer fire-truck smashed into the Cadillac), it’s amazing that Jewel walked away with just a few bumps and scratches.

“Real sore and banged up-but so glad to be walking around. Thankful & blessed,” she writes, when asked how she’s feeling.

In January, Jewel announced she and husband Ty Murray were expecting their first child together.
