At my 12 wk scan they found that i had a small cyst, i'm now 20wks and over the last week or so i've been getting quite a bit of pain in my tummy (mainly on the top of the bump and below) today its been at its worst especially when i bend or sit, but when i stand up strainght or lay down its ok

i've spoken to the midwife who said she is pretty sure from what i described that its muscular and to take pain killers and rest (not sure how i can rest with 4 others but...)

It only occured to me after speaking to the midwife that i had this cyst, so could this be causing the pain? has anyone got any experiance

when is your 20 weeks scan. They should keep an eye on the cyst to check that it doesn't intervene with the pregnancy.
