Stitch like pain when walking - 30 wks - normal?

Anyone else had or getting this? I am still active (swimming / yoga) and feeling great (lucky i know...) but at the moment and over the last 3 weeks every few days i get this stitch like pain in my right side when i walk anything more than 100m. I am walking pretty slowly so i don't think it can be that and it doesn't happen if i swim / do yoga. I have done nothing today except sit at my desk and still i get this pain walking to the tube in the morning and when getting my lunch. Is it normal? I wouldn't say it's agony but very annoying and means i keep having to randomly sit down at bus stops and the like!

Just wondering if anyone else has the same thing.

sounds like trapped wind. when i get that, it always feels like a stitch. remember your baby is being awkward now, and lying in weird ways which compress all your organs Confused

* DISCLAIMER - if you feel at all worried8, then always go to the GP, just to put your mind at rest x

Sounds like ligament pain to me. I'm in my 4th pregnancy and always strikes me on and off on one side or other or both! Could be trapped wind I guess also. Best get it checked out if you're worried.

I get it too. Midwife said it's normal and bit to worry. But if I am worried to see them about it.

I've been getting this for the last couple of weeks too. My midwife said that it was normal and not to worry but always get anything you are nervous about checked out!
