I'm Currently Feeling:  | how bad is too bad?
Since this is my first time, and I have a pretty high pain tolerance... How bad a pains do others get?
Sometimes I will get some pains around my stomach, it is more on the outside, im assuming this is round ligament pain and stretching pains because there are no contractions or anything...
But holy crap! Sometimes im just so uncomfortable I cant sleep. Does anyone take anything to help them? I havent touched a pain killer since I found out I was preggo.
I dont know if maybe it is the baby too? She kicks and moves around alot, and very hard! The last few days i've even been able to just watch it from the outside, all these little bumps. And it is quite often, I will wake up in the morning and she is moving, and then almost all evening she will be up lol! |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I have been getting a LOT of pain the last week, it is incredibly uncomfortable. I've just been trying to suffer it out. I have no idea how much pain is normal and when it goes over. I'm assuming that it is just stretching or soreness caused by the baby moving so much. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | My pain recently has mostly been at the very bottom of my spine (mostly from sitting) and in my hips/pelvis (mostly from standing/walking - I can't win!). It comes and goes in intensity depending how much I do in the day but is generally uncomfortable. I also get the ligament pains when I sneeze if I don't prepare myself properly, but that's not been so bad the past few days.
I always wake up more achey than when I went to bed though! |

| I haven't had much pain in the tummy area, a few stretching pains here and there but not very much. I have sore hips which wakes me up at night. Sore back that has me hobbling out of bed when I get up to pee, and super sore feet too. Now my legs and feet are very swollen, so that is adding to the pain.
But I haven't taken anything for any of this. No point really. The only time I've taken painkillers was when I had migraines, the painkillers didn't even work. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | The only pain I've been getting is little shooting pains.
