20 weeks + 5 days pregnant

[Raeanna07]

Hi ladies.. I'm 20weeks and 5 days today, I had my 20 week scan 2 days ago and found out I'm having a little girl and she's perfectly fine and healthy, I've been feeling her move since around 17 weeks and this is my first pregnancy.. for the past couple of week I've been getting a stretching/pulling/stabbing pain around my lower abdomen and especially on my right side.. has anybody else had this symptom? I am a massive worrier and nothing seems to put my mind at rest

Sounds like round ligament pains to me, nothing to worry about

PS. your due date is similar to mine (1st March) but mine was being too awkward to determine gender so have to go back to be rescanned, starting life as it means to go on no doubt lol

Hi hun didn’t want to read and run, definitely sounds like round ligament pain to me! I tend to get it if I move to quickly or reach up or twist in a funny way! I’m 28+2 now and still getting it so it’s very normal and just your body stretching for your little one! :)
