any help much appreciated

Hello! I'm no midwife but had two babies and what you're experiencing is very similar to what I had the pleasure of in both. Evidently, several causes. Ligaments stretching, uterus stretching, relaxin (spelling?) hormone all harmless but mildly annoying. Hope you're ok, but sounds normal to me!

Ligament pain. Add it to the list of the many pregnancy complaints. Expect more! X

thanks very much that's what i'm thinking it is feels much better today
