iām here worrying again so please be kind š
Iām 22 weeks pregnant tomorrow and had our ā20ā weeks scan on Monday. Where everything was fine including my cervix length etc. just before the scan I started to feel a little pressure on my bladder And constantly need the toilet. I had a UTI and it was clear on Monday and US tech confirmed that baby boy was chilling on my bladder which might explain the pressure on my bladder. Saturday morning I woke up on my back ( after falling asleep on my side š) and noticed my lower belly felt a little harder than normal even though itās often hard when lieing down and standing up anyway. I went to the loo and went down stairs but my belly still felt a little hard. I had no pain or discomfort at all it felt completely normal apart from feeling harder.I didnāt actually feel any tightening etc. throughout yesterday and Saturday Iāve now become obsessed with poking my belly to check for hardness and managed to convince my self Iām having constant braxton Hicks š„ Iāve called triage and they said as thereās no pain at all then donāt worry but I canāt get it off my mind ā¹ļø
Iām not even sure anymore what my ānormalā pregnant belly feels like š„² Iāve called triage again this morning and was told the same thing that as no pain itās nothing to worry about.
do these sound like braxton Hicks and sound worrying or should I trust the professionals?š
i know I need to get my anxiety under control and have spoke to my midwife about it but itās so hard. I convince my self all the time something is wrong with my baby š„
