Pains

[BethMaassen]

Since yesterday morning I have been having dull pains that are more annoyances than pain in my lower abdomen. And mostly when I moved or stood and they were momentary. I just put it off as gas. And as the day progressed they got sharper, but soon vanished. until this morning. I have sharp pains in my lower stomach but they are still annoyances rather than actual pain. I am pretty sure it is gas. Like 90% sure it is gas.

What do you gals think? When should I start to worry?

Anyone at all?

Hi Beth,

I've had this same thing for the past couple days except mine has been pretty constant. I am also 15 weeks but pregnant with triplets so the doc said just to come in because of the high risk pregnancy. Everything looks great. They are chalking it up to round ligament pain and bowels (I have been extremely constipated throughout this entire pregnancy). I do think they are right, I felt this was the case before I went in but DH wanted to make sure since it was constant and more severe than what I had experienced in the past. What you describe sounds similar to me, I would try not to worry. Take it easy. Last thing, apparently the round ligament pain can be more severe in second pregnancies which we are both on as well.

Hope u feel better soon!!!

Hi beth! From what im experiencing, it sounds like round ligament pain/stretching...it seems to take all forms, but yours sounds like the stereotypical,you move and your ligaments shift and ache from being pulled in a new direction. I've also had it as stabby pains along my bikini line, and even lower feeling like a got kicked in the crotch. Haha i called my poor doctor for all 3, all normal (I'm a first timer, everything worries me!)

Hey Ladies. Thank you all. My pains stopped some time yesterday afternoon, except for occasionally. This is all new to me because with my DD, I had no pains until 3rd trimester when I was the size of a blimp and the weight just hurt...

Anyway, I did try calling my doctors after not getting any responses here, seemed they were closed for whatever reason. So i contacted my doula. She said it sounded like round ligament pain and gas... Told my round ligament pain gets pretty bad from baby #2 and on. Woo! LOL I am stopping after this one.

Thank you though.
