I'm sorry about the cramping, but I'm sure it's perfectly normal. God is definitely in control. I have a hard time remembering that too. :-)Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10676218432177573142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034350803320180648.post-71868538026538726202010-04-19T13:47:51.810-05:002010-04-19T13:47:51.810-05:00I am almost 100% positive that what you are having...I am almost 100% positive that what you are having is round ligament pain. Basically the way the on call doc explained it to me when I panicked and called is that when the uterus finally gets big enough that it has to pop up and out of the pevlic cavity (which typically occurs about 18 weeks or so), it can be a stress on the round ligaments that hold the uterus to your hips. It can be painful, especially if you are atanding up or walking around a lot. Lie on your side and see if it goes away after a while- it should. I got a maternity support brace that helped some when my RLP was really bad (don't get the super crazy looking ones-they hurt when you sit. Just a plain wide elastic band looking thing is fine). Another thing that helped was sleeping with a pillow between my legs to keep my hips aligned at night. <br />Good news is that it won't hurt the baby or your pregnancy at all. It is painful when you are feeling it, but that's the extent of the damage :) Also the doc said that it should/might only last until about 25 weeks. With these little changes/tips and a few weeks (I am 25 weeks tomorrow) my RLP hasn't bothered me much at all lately. Let me know if these tips helped! I hope so :)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122362716599059627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034350803320180648.post-52412441006446059992010-04-19T13:22:48.809-05:002010-04-19T13:22:48.809-05:00It is impossible not to worry when it is so diffic...It is impossible not to worry when it is so difficult to get pregnant in the first place. Don't beat yourself up! And your pains sound exactly like what I had a lot of around the time you are at - it was definitely stretching. I wouldn't be surprised if you soon see some major growth come on fast! I hope you can relax though. :)Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09704657308448450841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034350803320180648.post-14887436653764945002010-04-19T09:34:35.582-05:002010-04-19T09:34:35.582-05:00Hope that the cramping/pressure stops.
