burning muscular pain in belly

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
anyone else have this? it's on the right side, a few inches out from my belly button. midwife says it's due to thinning of the abdominal muscles--i guess there's nothing i can do about it! but it's really been bothering me lately (especially with leaning over or a twisting motion, and at night in bed too) and i wondered if anyone has heard of this or has any advice...
thanks!

I had some of that too. But I've been extra careful lately about twisting at all or leaning to the side or rolling over (okay, so basically I barely move anymore!). But it's really annoying. I had it on both sides, but one side more than the other. I think it was worse this time because a) it's my third pregnancy b) baby favored transverse for a long time.

I have some pain but only when I twist. I keep forgetting and looking in the back seat of the car every couple of minutes when ds says, "Mom, Mom, look!" He just doesn't get that I can't turn around like that.:

Coming from due in September.
I have a sore muscular discomfort on the upper, right side of my belly. Really sore. My chiropractor mentioned it being a ligament of some type? I have an appt today so I'll be mentioning it again........

I have one of those pains up under my left breast, top of my belly that my midwife also said was a stretched out ligament. She said lots of women do get a pain like that SOMEWHERE on their stomach area and unfortunately it won't go away till your baby does...when mine is killing me I press hard above my upper lip (pressure point to relieve pain) and it relieves it for a few minutes to give me a break. Hang in there, we are almost relieved of our aches and pains!

I guess I'm worried that if it hurts to sneeze...how am I going to push?!?
