im about 15 weeks pregnant and im feeling sharp pains which feel like my utreus is pulling is that normal?

Answer 1

yup me too. i'm 15 weeks and having mini cramps. from what i've read and asked my doctor, these little cramps are common and normal. she said to worry if the cramping is severe and i have period-like bleeding. of course, you should ask your doc to be safe. but i'm 15 weeks too, and when i roll over in bed, OWWWW! good luck!

Morning sickness is different for every woman; it can last only for a few weeks, a few months, or possibility throughout the whole pregnancy. You could be one of the lucky ones who only had it for the first few weeks of pregnancy and now it's starting to subside. I wouldn't worry to much about it. The occasional sharp pains in your stomach that you are speaking of could be your uterus expanding and trying to get ready for the weeks and months ahead for your pregnancy. If you feel uncomfortable, or the pains get worse, or you experience bleeding, a lot of discharge, or don't feel good, i would by all means contact your doctor and discuss it. If they feel it's something that they may want you to come in for a earlier doctor's appointment and./or ultrasound they will let you know and make the call. Never feel like your being a pain in your doctor's eye, by calling with questions or concerns because that only proves how concerned you are about your child and how good of a mother you will be! I always say I would rather be safe than sorry. Good Luck.

Sounds like round ligament pain to me. Just your uterus growing and stretching. I'm 19 weeks pregnant with my second child and I know I notice it a lot when getting out of bed or getting up after sitting for a while. I get a strong pulling sensation in my lower right quadrant of my abdomen. Sometimes it is accompanied by a quick pain, sometimes not. Just make sure you tell your OB about this at your next visit, but I'm sure that's all it is.

I'm a man and a soon to be dad 3/2/07 and my wife had the same thing. Took her to the ER and the doctors just said it was her uterus/pelvis stretching and it was completely normal. She took a couple Tylenol and that seemed to ease the pain. Hope that Helps

Answer 5

Of course since we can't feel it, we can't say for sure. It's always best to talk to your Dr. about any concerns. But I had similar pains, they are sometimes called Growing Pains. Your belly is growing and stretching, that can definitely be uncomfortable. Try moving around do some light stretching and massage the sore areas.

Answer 6

Sometimes it is very normal to have pains, lay down and see if it goes away. If the pains are sharp and in one area then you should go see your doctor just in case.

Answer 7

Call your Doc if you are concerned, but at this time of pregnancy with the baby growing bigger, you tendons and ligaments are stretching to accomodate. When I started getting bigger, I dreaded, dreaded everytime I would feel a sneeze coming on. Those who have been there will know what I mean! lol

Answer 8

yes very. I'm 11 weeks today and I have them as well. You will probably feel those until about 20 weeks, maybe. It is just your uterus growing. It's a muscle you know! But becuase of the rapid speed it has to grow at, it does tend to hurt at times.

Answer 9

right now u are having round ligament pain which is very normal...what is happening is ur uterus is pulling to the right side to make more room for the baby..i had this happen at 14 weeks ..and this is what the ob told me..so it is very very normal..congrats and good luck..

Answer 10

Yes, it's your tendons and ligaments stretching and preparing for the weight of the baby. As long as there is no cramp like feelings and bleeding you're fine.
