Pregnancy gripes,Qs and worries!

[broodymom]

Every now and then i get a tearing sensation like my skin is tearing from muscle right at front of my tummy above belly button has anyone else had this?

Have a lot of twinges in groin area as well

Also im 18 weeks today and havent felt any movements,should i start to worry? Ms has stopped and appart from the twinges etc i dont feel pregnant at all, im feeling pretty woried that something may be wrong

This is my third dc but its been 8years since i was last pregnant and i dont remember any of these worries.

Don't worry about not feeling movments as they are often later and it depends where it is and where placenta is etc. Siome ple feel nothing until 24 weeks...twinges are prob a good sign! The 'tearing' sensation could be stretching - I get something similar and its agony! Someone suggested an eye gel patch on it (poppy5 I love you!!) and it works wonders.

I was anxious too, I went to see lovely GP regularly to hear hb (she offererd as she knew I was anxious) to help me thru that bit. I am 28 weeks now and its never still!!
