That sounds like it too, some people it's hurts and others it doesnt. It can be anywhere on your uterus as well.
Ladies, what are Braxton Hicks like?? I swear I have not had ANY this entire pregnancy.
The last week though I noticed in the evening I get a dull ache reallllly low down, sort of under the bottom of the pregnancy 'pooch' and it feels kind of crampy (like period cramps). But it's more achey and it lasts for a little while; not the sort of "my stomach gets rock hard for a brief moment" like I've been reading.
I feel clueless!
I forgot one other thing from my appointment yesterday: I have gained 15 pounds total, 4 of them in the last 1 month and a few days since our last appointment. So my doctor says, "Well, no changes to your diet and exercise are needed at the MOMENT." As if I was borderline or something. I really like my doctor in general, I just felt like she was being way too cautious when I think I've been really good about nutrition.
Well, I'm up 45 lbs pre-pregnancy, so a lot more than you. They say they aren't "concerned" because my sugars were good, but they always say stuff about low carbs, etc. I'm sorry, but I'm not drinking soda all day or eating candy between meals. I'm not about to make some big effort at a low-carb diet. They can stuff it. lol!
