12-8-2009 - growing pains? or something else...

My mood while writing this blog: hum

---

So as of this past week I have had lots of....light cramping & tenderness in my pelvis area. I am so worried I dont remember this with my first pg. I know all pg's are different but its so constant I have a hard time thinking that what I am experiancing is growing pains (I hope it is thou). I will forget about it for a day and then it just shows up and lasts about 10 - 20 mins. I have been trying to find some books that explaines what I am feeling anyone have one that is better than what to expect when expecting? (I dont really find this one helpful)...Besides that I am looking prego all 10 weeks plus some but have only put on 5 lbs. If I keep up at this rate I will only be at 20 by the time I give birth (one can only hope). Anyway any advise would be great Thanks again everyone! PS my next ob appt is on the 28th should I try and move it up a week?

They really don't mind if you call. The worst they can say is...your fine...see you at your next appt. They want you to feel comfortable and non-stressed so I would call. I had the same thing during this pregnancy. I was told it was due to growing and changing ligaments and things down there. I didn't really believe it because I couldn't imagine things would need to stretch so early (right around 10 weeks for me, too), but that really was all it was. :) Keep us updated. :)

I'd just call your nurse and tell her what you're feeling. If she thinks you should go in earlier, she'll schedule it. :) I think the pain is your body getting ready to get a bit bigger. Please keep us updated as soon as you talk to your nurse or doc! :)

Don't fret precious. I had that with this pregnancy (plus still have moments of almost excruiating pains) and not with any of the other three. I'm sure you'll be fine. Sending positive thoughts your way. xoxox

It might be what your wearing. When I was pregnant w/ my son and now w/ this one. I can't wear anything even slightly snug around my waist. I bought of bunch of sundress. Long and short ones. That's what I would wear everyday. During the winter I'd wear those warm valor jump suits, that have draw strings in the pants so I can loosen or tighten as needed. I could never wear those cute prego pants because of cramping. Hope you feel better.
