I had pains, but they were not really horrible, sort of like mild period cramps, if you are worried or bleeding then you should go see your doctor, other wise, chin up it should get better! Smile

What that usually is, is ur uterus stretching. Sometimes it can be painful sharp pains and other tiems it could just be uncomfortable pains.. But unless its severe pain, then thats when u should go to the hospital, but other than that, its totally normal to feel pains in ur lower abdomen and basically, ur stomach.

Shauna is right, that happened to me and I too went to school and I felt like I couldnt move or get out of my chair, as a matter of fact I couldnt get off of the floor. You will make it throgh, how far along are you in your pregnancy?

I also was wonderig how far along you are, because when I had my daughter I didn't have real sharp pains when I started labor, they were dull lower back pains. Just keep an eye on them and make sure they arn't real contractions.

I Think Its Fine!!!
Hey, my name is heather. I am 17 weeks and 3 days preggy now. When I was 10 weeks preggy I experieced really bad cramping, then some bleeding a couple days after the cramps. I called the midwifes and they said it was my placenta attaching fully to my uterus. That causes the cramps. Then of course there is a rubbing and it causes the bleeding. A couple weeks ago, I felt some awful cramps and pain in my lower back. It was so bad I did not wanna move! Turned out I had a bladder infection. When is your next appointment hun?

Wow to Much
I think that your teacher is way out of line. You are due in 2 weeks at least and the teach made you walk 18 laps, no wonder you are having back pains, that is crazy and mean!!!

Your not due in two weeks ar eyou, I thought you were 11 weeks pregnant? I think that the teacher was making you do way to much regardless. I understand she wants you to stay in shape but what does she also want you to do, break a hip? Crazy ass!!

Thanks thats another relief off of my shoulders trust me. Ive been so tired lately I sleep all day long and I stay awake for like an hour and have to go back to bed... Ryan thinks im weird but im just tired. I woke up last night and got up and it felt like the baby was gonna fall out because I could feel something in my adnomin muscle thingy but my mom said its just growing and when it grows it feels funny so that might be it. I told ryan he laughed but I didnt think it was funny. Sad o well just thought id share...How was everyone else's weekend? I go to the doctor in one week and I get to hear the heartbeat and see if she/he has grown and what it is Smile so excited let me tell yall. Keep in touch

Yyyyeeeeaaahhhhhh
I am happy for you. When you hear the hearbeat you will be so reasurred. It is the most beautiful sound in the world. I did not get t hear my baby's heartbeat till I was 15 weeks so I was looooong overdue!!! When I heard it I cried. The doctor and my mom looked at me and asked why was I crying. I said is it not the most wonderful noise in the world? They smiled and the baby took off swimming like she always does. So shy Crying or Very sad even turns over when it is time for the ultrasounds!!! Let us know how you love the heartbeat!!!!!!!!
Lots of love,
heather

Thats so cute. Did u have her or still pregnant with her? I think thats so adorable. Mine isnt shy he/she likes to look at the ultrasound machine. I cant wait to see how much bigger he/she got. How long did u have to wait to see the sex of ur baby?
