Hurt my placenta?

[phrumkidost]

When I finished prenatal yoga today I got myself up off the floor and felt a pain in my bump, almost like a sprained muscle. That was 3 hours ago. It still kinda hurts, like a slight burning or tearing sensation, below the skin, about 2 inches from my belly button. I'm scared I may have torn my placenta or something else awful! Has anyone experienced this? Help!!

I sometimes get this when I bend over and pick something up off the floor, but it's usually gone after a minute or so, maybe give your midwife or the hospital a call and see what they think? It will put your mind at rest even if they say it's normal!

I finally panicked enough to call my mom, and she thinks it's either a pulled ligament or the beginning of a stretch mark. I'm feeling a bit better. I have the triage number dialed into my phone, though, so it would be easy to make the call if I need to!

Try having a soak in the bath and see if it eases off a bit! xx

I had that sore muscle in my tummy pain all through week 33 of my pregnancy. I think I carried too many groceries up our 3 flights of stairs maybe. It kind of felt like it feels when you push your muscles too hard in the gym I guess? mostly right under my belly button too and it hurt to walk, move, or bend. I spoke with my ob about it and she said that as long as baby was moving normally and I didn't have any spotting or bleeding not to worry about it and it could be a number of things. It went away after that week and hasn't come back since.
