Pregnancy pain

[Daisy42016]

Hi all

writing for advice/ to see if anyone has similar experiences?

29 weeks + 4 days pregnant now
I had severe abdominal pain on Tuesday ( felt like a tightening/ stitch) the whole way across my stomach and getting shooting pains up my right side when breathing/ walking/ coughing/ moving at all

this went on for two days

i was seen in hospital
bloods normal just low iron
ctg ok
Urine ok
not constipated
blood pressure normal
heart rate of me and baby up but likely due to pain as given codeine and this resolved

I was in pain then all day Wednesday
Thursday it eased
and now it’s back again today - not moving it could still bring me to tears, and the same shooting pains up right side on any movement

feels like a cramp/ tight across whole stomach

the hospital suggest this was musculo skeletal related / pelvic girdle pain - I really don’t feel like it is pelvic girdle pain as my pelvic area is ok, it’s all in my stomach

any idea of what this is/ advice/ help?

thank you

Just to add when the pain is at peak it leaves me breathless/ in really bad pain/ can’t straighten myself upright

Im not a mum, but im pregnant (5 weeks 3 days) so i dont know the feeling.

But is there a possiblility that it may be braxton hicks?

If you're still worried or still in pain and its bad, i'd definitely get a second opinion! Good luck x

I had trapped wind at 35 weeks after spending most of the day sitting in an uncomfortable seat and eating/drinking non alcoholic drinks. I was in agony and didn’t think I was going to be able to drive home/thought about needing to go to hospital. Resolved itself when I finally got home and relaxed.

not saying it’s the same for you but that was my experience and I never imagined trapped wind could feel so serious!

This is me right now but it’s on my left side. Anyone have anything similar. Currently in triage. The pain when at its worse was a 10 and def couldn’t speak.

I was the exact same with the pain. Mine did eventually go away but I never found out what it was! A few people suggested like kidney/ gall stone type thing (not professionals!). I hope it passes soon the pain is terrible. Has your blood pressure been ok? Hope you’re ok soon 🤞x

Misread!

Blood pressure has all been normal. Monitoring normal. Bloods normal. They’ve just requested a scan of my kidneys but they admitted me last night to give me stronger pain relief. The pain has definitely eased but not gone completely. How long did you have your pain? I know everybody and condition is totally different.
