23 weeks - painful tightening

[excitedmama2be]

Anyone else at this stage had tight pressure / tightening sensation ??
feels like I’m going through a stretching phase

I would call the MAU in this instance just to be on the safe side.

It’s gone now that I’m in bed lying down
probably just in akward position stretching while I was out for meal and pub

Yeah just keep an eye on it, hopefully it was just a one-off. Pregnancy is a stressful time.

It could be Braxton-hicks. I read somewhere it can start early in subsequent pregnancies (at 20 weeks). It did for me but this is no 5.

I have had tightening from about 23 weeks..feels like I've been pumped up and stretched! Not painful but uncomfortable. Get it probably once a day now at 29 weeks usually when I'm out walking. It's apparently Braxton hicks and nothing to worry about but obviously if you are concerned get checked out.

It settled last night when I got into bed so I might have just needed a diff position and I was rather gassy too so it may have been trapped wind too 😂😂

all fine today with her normal kicks
