You get two posts in one day - watch out now.
Well, late afternoon on Friday I started getting some weird pains in my belly - right about where baby is. It was kind of a quick stab for about a second, then gone. But I have gotten it off and on, in the exact same spot throughout the weekend. I debated calling my doctor - but I read my little handy-dandy information sheet from them that describes when you're having an emergency, and without any other symptoms besides the pain, I decided to hold off.
It feels different from the mild crampiness I've had almost the entire pregnancy (totally normal especially for first time pregnancies - it's from the uterus stretching). And it doesn't feel muscular at all.
I have a call into my doctor as of this morning and am waiting to hear back. My next doctor's appointment is in another week - that's a long time to wait to make sure baby is okay. I know I'm not quite as worried since I am in the 2nd trimester - but I am still nervous. I'll let you know what the doctor says.
I'm sure everything will be ok - There's a lot of stuff changin' and shiftin' and god knows what else!
ReplyDeleteIs it on one side versus the other? This may be TMI - but I get pains in my lower left quadrant from constipation. Its from gas/hard stool just chillin down there. When this first started happening I totally thought it was a gyn issue, but an ultrasound only revealed some stool that really needed to be evacuated, lol :P
ReplyDeleteThanks Stac! I am thinking everything is fine - just nervous still.
ReplyDeleteAlly - Actually constipation is one of the few symptoms I am lucky not to be experiencing. I think my prenatal vitamin is preventing me from having that issue (it was rated amazingly well on lots of sites)!
I hope the cramps go away. I bet it's nothing out of the ordinary. I'll be thinking about you and hoping everything goes well.
