Not sure how bad is the pain? No bleeding or discharge? I get aches and pains and lots of twinges, could it be the baby, if you're worried contact your MW hun.xxx

Hi hun, don't have much advice but didn't want to read and run. I'm not as far along as you so haven't experienced this yet. I sometimes get bad pain in my stomach if i stand up too fast. I would say its just your ligaments stretching, preparing for a 8-10lb baby to be in there! But if you are really worried, give your mw a call, thats what shes there for!

same as the other gurls hun its sounds like stretching pains. my MW told me to lay on my side in a comfertable postion when i get these pains and gently massage my stomach and the area of pain and it should help it to pass. thats what i do and it works wonders. lke kiwimama said your bodys making room for a gowing baby inside you and right now he/she si on a huge growth spurt. but if your really worried hun mabey call your MW and she mite have a quick listen to the heart to put your mind at rest. hope this helps

How are you today hun? It sounds like ligament stretching, and is normal. Has it gone away at all?

Oh babe I feel your pain, I've had it all week...I hate it!

Sounds like it could be stretching/ligament pain, which can feel horrible. But if the pain persists, and you are still worried, then I would contact your midwife, for reassurance. Hope you feel better real soon hun. xx

Hope your feeling better Lollylou, i have had this for past few days, saw midwife and she says its stretching, described when i get it - turning in bed, standing up and moving about and she said sounds like round ligament pain, ooooo it sure hurts tho!!!

at this stage baby is growing fast and your ligaments become very stretched to accomodate, she says it sould ease off tho xxx

i find holding my bump when i get up or move helps, go see your m/w if your at all concerned tho for peace of mind xxxx
