Uterus pains?

~*sierra*~ · #1 October 6th, 2010, 06:07 AM

Is it normal? I am assuming it's normal, but the last time i assumed something was normal i ended up barfing all over an airplane! so i've had little cramps in my lower right uterus area, they kinda hurt, but its not excruciating by any means...it kinda feels like a cyst, but they told me my cyst was on the other side....i dont think its the same as my round ligament pains, i really only get those when i cough or sneeze...also i woke up in the night and my uterus was like rock hard, but it went away in like a minute...i just dont know what this is supposed to feel like, kwim? i am assuming its not a walk in the park, but my tummy is also super small so i figured i'd avoid at least some of the discomforts of being really huge.

what all did you feel/do you feel??

I had that sometimes. It can be round ligament pain or it can be baby moving into an uncomfy spot that puts pressure on a nerve. As long as it's not coming and going in a manner that you can time it's most likely nothing. It could be that you're going to be one of those women who has a lot of Braxton Hicks contractions too. Try drinking some extra water and laying down for a bit to see if it goes away.

The uterus/stomach being hard seems like the start of BH contractions to me. I don't recall mine starting so early but if they start to happen frequently, make sure you stay very well hydrated.

Ditto. I started getting getting them at 19 weeks.

hmm i think i might have had one during yoga yesterday too. i'm still kinda sick, so i am really trying to stay hydrated...... hopefully they go away once i'm fully better.

i swear to god my uterus starts hurting when MIL starts talking......every single thing she says is negative. it's so hard to keep positive when i get all this negativity around me all the time.

You poor thing. I find I have more BH contractions when I get stressed (which is every day in my job). When are you moving... I have asked this before but I have preggo brain and can't remember anything!!
