Spasm??

I will be 16 weeks tomorrow and this is my second pregnancy. Yesterday I was sitting down for about 20 minutes and out of nowhere I felt like I had been hit with a taser on the top/side part of my uterus. It was so strong it brought me to my feet and all of a sudden I was standing. It was so strange and I never experienced that before. I was really busy doing house work all weekend and hosting family but I tried keeping up with my water intake. Today I feel like I've been hit by a truck and my whole body is sore and worn out. I have an appt tomorrow already so I'm not going to bother calling bc I know they can't get me in sooner but has anyone experienced this? I feel bad that I could have done something to harm my baby but I felt fine while in the midst of it all.

Depending on exactly where you felt it, sounds like either round ligament pains or a contraction (both would be totally normal). Round ligament pain, while usually a bit lower than what you describe can be really sharp and sudden and take your breath away.
