That explains the pain

[Devaskyla]

I had to get up in the middle of the night because of agonizing cramps. I was afraid my crying would wake the kids. I finally took something to try to stop the pain so I could get back to sleep, because it just wasn't stopping on it's own.

This morning I woke up and....my belly is visibly bigger. Not huge or anything, but definitely bigger. Very weird, I've never had that happen before. And I hope it never, ever happens again.

I'm glad that you are feeling better now, that sounds a bit horrid.

that doesn't sound like it was any fun at all. I wonder if maybe you had some air trapped. For some reason when I'm pregnant, I seem much more susceptible to getting air trapped inside. I've had it so painful before that I've been doubled over unable to move. I had occurrences with both my previous pregnancies, but I'm hoping it will pass me by this time. I'm so glad you're feeling better.

Thanks. It felt like labour to be honest, except that it was constant & I had no idea when it was going to be over. I was really sore the next day, too, like I'd been working out.
