Pulled muscles in bump?

I'm 26 weeks and since yesterday feel like I've strained my muscles in my lower bump, only way to describe it ! It just feels strained when i move about - like I've been doing sit ups or something ! Which i definitely haven't 😆 is this round ligament pain or could it be pgp ? My pubic bone aches too

Sounds like round ligament pain. Mention it to your midwife though.

Thanks. I would do but don't even have a number for her - have to go through the gp and attempt to get an appointment 🙄
Maybe it's just stretching pains as you said , doesn't the baby have a big growth spurt around now ?

I’ve had this a few times. I have managed to minimise it by making quite slow movements when getting up, sitting down, rolling over in bed etc.

I mentioned it and was told probably round ligament but to get checked out if pain was bad. It always passes for me.

Ahh thank you @Merryclaire I find it's worse if I've been lying down for a while, did you get this too ?

Leaning forward is the worst for me! If it take too long to put my shoes on I definitely pay the price.
