"pinching" feeling on right side?

[codiontour]

anyone else feel anything like a pinching feeling on the side? im only 4 weeks along..... just wondering if its normal?

It's probably normal I remember getting all sorts of pinches, cramps and pains down there in the first weeks. My m/w said it was normal and I should only worry if the pain is severe.

I think she said it was stretching of the ligaments and muscles around the expanding uterus.

thanks that makes me feel better : )

Don't forget all that extra progesterone loosening everything up and growing uterus pushing everything around (round ligaments, uterus, abdominal muscles, rearranging intestines, etc.)... that's gonna cause a little pinch here and there as you move.

You'll still get them with you're 20 weeks along...

And when you're 37 weeks along...

And when your uterus is forming back to size after you have LO ...

You get all sorts of pains, aches, pinching when pregnant, i used to panic but soon realised that its normal! unless your in great pain i wouldn't worry about it!
