Hello all, I have been experiencing a
sharp, burning kind of pain about 3 inches
below my naval, and about 3 or 5 inches to
the left. Kind of between my front and
my side. Whenever I stand up, lie down,
straighten from bending over it stings.
Sometimes, like right now, just while i'm
sitting. When it happens, it will last
about 10 seconds, however it is constantly
tender. It seems to be getting
progressivly worse. It's been about 5
days now. There is no bulge or
swelling. Any ideas?

Are you pregnant?
If you are pregnant, that pain would be
the round ligaments stretching. It
happens when your uterus is growing. In
the first and second trimesters you'll
find you'll get it for a couple of weeks
and then it'll go away, and it'll reappear
a few weeks later. It doesn't happen much
in the last trimester- or maybe it does
and you just don't really notice anymore!
You need to adjust your movements- stand
up slower, don't twist around quckly, that
kind ogf thing.
Scary things like etopic pregnancies would
involve terrible pain on one side that
doesn't go away after a few moments. It's
totally different.
If you are not pregnant

Oooh, don't know what happened there-
wasn't finished!~
if you are not pregnant, i'm not sure what
it could be- i've heard you can experience
pain on one side during ovulation
though.
If it gets much worse or the pain stops
going away after a few seconds, you should
go to a doctor. My sister is way skinny,
but she managed to hide a cyst the size of
an orange .B.E.H.I.N.D a cyst the size of
a grapefruit in her very flat tummy! (i
think they were on her falopian tube)

I have this same pain only it is above my
belly button, and it is like a burn,
cramp, pain all at the same time. My
doctor told me it is either my gullbladder
or an ulcer, and said if the pain happens
before you eat and it is relieved when you
eat, then it is an ulcer, and if it
happens anytime, then it is probably the
gullbladder, and suggested that I time
when it happens etc. And then come back
in a couple of weeks.. I freaking hate
when doctors say that ! It is hard enough
to get to the doctor once, then ya gotta
go through it all over again in a couple
of weeks!! So anyway, i'm not sure what
it is, because it will happen anytime, it
does however last more than 10 seconds
when it happens :p.

i didn't even pay attention to the
name!!!!!
I just vaguely saw kelly, and (being a
pregnancy forum) assumed female.
Sorry mike!
Although, you would'nt believe the unusual
pregnancies that turn up here.....

Guessing probably not an ectopic pregnancy
then! I like the way you handled it with
humour not just disappearing.
