Help put my mind at ease!

I have been having bad rather constant crapping the last two days no other symptoms. I called my Dr and he said is normal due to stretching and such. I am 14 weeks today and have had 3 prier pregnancies I do not remember such pain and discomfort.

Is this normal?

Thanks!

I have been having that latley too. This is my 3rd preg so i'm just assuming it is the weak muscles...lol.... Hopefully you start feeling better!

Yes. IIRC, i round ligament pain starts earlier and is more severe for us "grand multiparas" (actually you and I don't quite belong to that club yet). With my ds, I had to ask the midwives about it because it worried me so much. I don't remember it starting so early with him, though, and I've been feeling it already with this bean, it just isn't scary because I know what it is.

i get some killer round ligaments pains. I'm pretty relaxed this pregnancy overall about things i feel

It sounds normal and the more kids you have the worse those ligament pains get!

Tell me about it! This will be, G*d willing, our 4th babe, but my 7 pregnancy, if I don't feel the uteran stretch, I get worried. So just try, if it's possible, to think of it as your body doing it's work!

This cramping also happenned to me, but it was actually gas. After about a week I figured it out and I took some gas-x and it totally worked. I know a lot of people on the boards are not in favor of medications like this, but it provided a ton of relief for the pain.

Also make sure to keep well hydrated - that's been helping me a lot.
