question

What does round ligament pain feel like?
This morning I am uncomfortable - I am getting these pains in my belly just below my belly button, in the center part of my stomach - sometimes off to the left side. It is more when I move then when I am sitting still. They are fairly intense but quick. Maybe 30 seconds and they are gone. It is almost like a pulling or pulled muscle feeling. I didn't know if I should call the OB or if this is just "growing pains" I am 10 weeks today.
Makes me want to go home and crawl under the covers!

Thanks ladies!

That's what mine felt like. Hope you feel better. They're no fun.

Thanks Angie - now I can relax and just deal with them

You're welcome. If you actually feel the muscles squeezing, call your OB though.

I get them too! I feel it a lot at night when I'm flipping over or using my belly muscles to much! They hurt!!!!

I am having the same thing...sometimes (mostly at night) they hurt extremely bad but only for a second or so and then it is gone...guess it is time for us to grow huh?

Sounds like it for sure. Stretching can hurt for sure. I dont get them often yet but they are here. I think its cause all I can do is lose weight. Down 17 pounds now and so I think instead of gorwing I shrink. So strange! It will get easier though when you adjust to it. Dont think mine from before with my two boys ever went away as I always just got lots bigger but they are not as bad when you know what it is and can breathe through it and all.
