OUCH!
Well throughout my pregnancy (touch wood) i have just had the normal aches and pains etc until this afternoon...... all afternoon i have been getting really painful short sharp stabbing pains really low down just above my bikini line mostly on the left side but a couple on the right side.
They only last about 5 seconds or so but really take me by surprise and bend me double. I have had about 20-25 so far since about 4pm.

Its almost like my ricegrain has long nails and is stabbing me with them,but i dont feel her/him move at the time.
Baby has been active today and i havn't overdone it or been doing anything different today.
Has anyone else had this type of pain? and is this anything to worry about or just another "normal" pregnancy pain??

I have had a few shooting pains, but they feel more like they are straight down through my cervix and down the birth canal. Almost electric like pains. You might give you MW a call and ask.

I'd be more worried if the baby was less active.
Get it checked out if it's not normal for you.

I've had some pains like LO is scratching with his nails. I would call your midwife or doctor if you think it makes you worry!
