Hi ladies,
So for past few days ice had this discomfort feeling in my lower abdomen, like heavy pressure discomfort, I found it came after I had been to the toilet number 2 but very constipated and maybe strained a little too hard? Or could it be baby is getting bigger I'm 27.2 ... it's fine when im sitting down but feels heavy when I walk or stand up
especially if I need a wee and uncomfortable laying on left side too has anyone else had this

Around the same time as you as bump gets bigger, I've had this feeling heavy. Lying down on either side has been the most comfortable position, sitting down is ok but I get tired quickly, sway side to side etc... For me there wasn't a trigger like yourself, so for that reason I'd say it's best you get checked.

Hi, I've had this since around 25 weeks. I thought it was a UTI as it seems to get worse when I needed to pee.
But it was clear.
It was quite painful at times and was constant for about a week, then went off a bit, and back again.
My midwife suggested it is down to the position of baby

Mine was right under my bump almost. Kind of where your bump joins.

Mine is still the same on and off but found out the pain is actually my pelvis and it's PGP.

If you feel worried, it's always better to give them a call. Put your mind at ease

Hopefully it eases for you!
