Evening all! Smile
Since quite early on in my pregnancy on my left side mostly , sort of where you'd think ovary sits. If I move suddenly of get up from sofa etc I get a sharp pain , I can tell it's my muscle, not baby or womb I'm sure.
This morning sitting up in bed it knocked me sick 🤢

Has anyone else experienced this? Is it just the ligament ?

I'm worried my stomach isn't strong enough to carry the baby! 😂🙈

This is my second baby and I never felt it with my first.
Thank you xx

It’s round ligament pain - it really hurts doesn’t it!

Round ligament pain most likely. Try rolling out of bed and standing more slowly.

Omg, I didn't think that would be so painful! I feel like I'm getting a hernia each time! Lol 😂
I'll do the rolling and be slower
We have a Doberman and the first time it happened I stood up quickly to stop her stealing food! Ouch!
Thank you both

I was coming to advise you stop playing with sharks and that will help the pain 🤪

I had these pains too, really sore! They’ve stopped now - I think because I’ve automatically started moving more slowly to avoid it

😂Thank you @Nelbert19 I feel better. I can't keep still so sometimes forget to go slow, but I'm learning!
No sharks here! 😂😂
