Lately ive been having a constant type of
pain in my very low abdomen..Almost not
even my stomach..I dunno where to describe
it.. Except to say.. Around where my
pubic hair starts is where it hurts.. And
the occasional sharp pain "down there" ive
been extremely tired lately and feeling
extremely nausious all the time and
throwing up.. Has anyone experienced this
or know what could be wrong? I am 30
weeks.

Hi I was also on that same situation when
I reached the 30th week its prob pelvic
pressure but mine persisted so I had to go
to the hospital as I have a history of
preterm pregnancy.
With regards to tiredness, nausea, and
vomitting did your health visitor/docotr
checked your blood pressures lately? Coz
too much of them 3 are normally symptoms
of pre-eclampsia.
If I were you I would see a doctor
immediately

Yeah I had my blood pressure taken
yesterday, and the heart rate of the baby
checked.. But I never mentioned this
problem.

Is it still persisting? I understand what
you mean tho I normally forget my concerns
during checkup everything and health
visitors seems to always rush (and temp
memory loss during pg doesnt help much).
But if its really bothering you and the
symptoms persists you gotta go to
emergency even if you feel like its
mild...Its better to be on the safe
side...As they say better to be safe than
sorry. Trust your instincts and next time
you go for your antenatal list all your
concerns so you wont be able to forget
them=) it works for me
good luck

Hi i’m new on this site but I have been
having a pain in my lower abdomen
just above where my pubic hair starts and
it seems to be on my right side with the
pain going down my right leg im not sure
weather I should be worried as this is my
first pregnancy and im 18 weeks just gone,
when I explained to my sister as she has
had 2 children she said that she never had
this pain.

hi and welcome to the forum and
congratulations on your pg. Is the pain
accompanied with a discharge? How long
did you have this pain? You have to
remember that each pregnancy is
considered as unique and that might the
reason that she didnt have this symptom.
The simplest explanation would prob be
that your uterine wall (endometrium) is
expanding preparing for your baby to grow.
I remember havin leg cramps when I was
the same stage as you.

well if the doctors says its normal youve
got nothin to worry about if the pains not
constant then its prob the stretching.
Hope everything goes well. The only pain
relief that you could take which is
considered safe is paracetamol.

Wow neeko I would def. Be concerned with
how your Dr. Is treating you...I would
feel totally disreguarded ya know?? But
hey...Maybe everything is just going so
"textbook" that you have nothing to worry
about...
Maybe you should try writing down your
questions and maybe talking to the nurse
practicioner who takes your urine and
blood pressure....She prob has more time
to answer your questions...I tend to do
that when i've been waiting in the waiting
room for a while...Like I just can't wait
to see the Dr. To ask him!!
Lol...They're pretty informative when it
comes to ailments in your pregnancy!!!
Try giving the front dest a call if the
pain persists...They will actually ask the
Dr. If you should come in or give you
advice over the phone!!! Good luck!!!

Their are times that you have to be more
firm with some of these dr's., not rude
but firm and the other poster is correct,
write down anything you are having trouble
with or have questions about and just say
wait a minute, you haave some questions
that need answered, do not be afraid of
him or her(your Dr.,). I had the same
problem with my neck surgeon.
Good luck to you!

I think doctors tend to b like that, I go
to a navy medical center and so sometimes
I see doctors and others I see midwifes
and the midwives are great I spent 20
minutes with one last time I was there and
she explained things I didnt even ask
about. Definately ask your doc and if hes
still like that get a new one. I
personally prefer women especially older
ones who have had kids cuz they are more
compassionate and when it comes to that
day u are giving birth ull want it

Well, my doctor has delivered probably
about 85% of people I knows children, some
have good things to say about him and some
have bad things to say... When I do ask a
question, he does answer and talk to me
about it.. Its just me not asking the
questions I guess.. Which is bad.. But
it just skips my mind..
They give us our "pee cups" lol to take
home with us every appointment and we
bring them back and when we sign in we
leave them on the counter with the
receptionist. After that is about a 2 hr
wait.. Then receptionist/nurse weighs
ya.. Dr does ya blood pressure,
measurements and heart beats and ur outta
there.. Lol..
I recently had a bladder infection and im
wondering if maybe it didnt get cleared up
or has come back and thats what causing
the pain but im not sure if that makes
sense.. I live in ontario.. So I can
call telehealth ( 1 800 number) and speak
witha nurse about it if it keeps up.. And
see what they think

Havent Had An Appointment Yet

I will be 22 weeks before I have my first
anti-natal appointment, they also forgot
to do my bloods, and I had a phone call
one evening asking if I could go straight
to the hospital so they could do my
bloods. I will say that the midwife was
very nice and apologized as she said that
I had got lost in the system, I havent
herd what my results were, also she told
me when I had my scan and said that I
would receive an appointment in the post
but I haven't had anything yet and my scan
is on saturday. I don't know weather I
should phone them and ask if my
appointment is still ok.
