Hi ladies.

I'm 17+3 and I'm just wondering has anyone else experienced pain on their right side it starts low and travels up. It's not very sore but quite uncomfortable. Feels like pulling/stretching pains. I am just hoping this is a normal part of pregnancy as this is baby no1. X

Could be wind op!

Kidney stones?

Have you felt movement yet - it can feel like bubbles - strange till you get used to it?

Maybe just round ligament pain - I’ve had lots of pulling and stretching pain, definitely at your stage if not before :) Am sure fine but it gets worse you could always call your midwife.

I had a lot of stretching pains throughout which can range from a bit sore to agonising especially at night

I'm 18wks and get frequent pains in lower abdomen/inner thigh/groin, especially if I get up too quickly.
I'm assuming ligament pain.
I think it's all normal 😊

Took paracetamol and it eased so I'm assuming it's normal and round ligament pain. Have felt no movement yet. Could be another few weeks yet. Thanks for the reassurance and advice

It’ll be round ligament pain probably, damned thing used to bring me to my knees. A support belt can help if they start to irritate you.

Just checking, can round ligament pain last for days though?

I am 17 weeks pregnant and have a pain in my right side, sound exactly like this.

@CBile3 this post is 3 years old but I'm 18 weeks and I've had this pain everyday for the past week! Some days a constant throbbing aching pain, other days sudden sharp pain on movement. I'm pretty certain it's normal changes to our bodies and ligaments being stretched and pulled. Mine is much easier with some paracetamol and a hot water bottle after a soak in the bath (don't judge me it's really a warm water bottle lol)
