just wondering if any of you girl have had this?
Since about 8pm last night..it is now 11:44pm the next night. i have had very deep dull aches in my lower right abdominal and lower right back..it has not subsided. I went to my doctor today at 3 and he checked the heart beat and that was fine but didnt tell me what the pain was. said it might be stetching or maybe a cyst. I dont have an ultrasound till Monday but i am quite concerned because it is only on one side and has not let up. The pains are not shap but very deep dull pains..has anyone had this? and if so how long did it last? please help. nothing seems to make it go away.

Maybe it is Braxton Hicks. When you go for your scan I am sure they will answer the question for you. If it gets any worse and you are concerned, go back to the Doctor.

17 weeks pregnant- lower abdomen aching

I also have the aching in lower abdomen...comes and goes but itd really uncomfortable, Im also 17 weeks pregnant with my third child, I think its normal...Its your uterus stretching cos your baby is growing so quickly now...Nothing to worry about..Only time you need to worry is if you bleed and have sharp pain, then phone your doctor, otherwise your body's just going through a lot of changes, I remember having the same thing with my other two kids Smile
