I'm currently 20 weeks pregnant and I have a tightness in my lower abdomen and I'm just wondering if this is what round ligament pain is. It doesn't hurt just kinda like a tightness. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you♥

I also have had this. I was told it was slight round ligament pain. I talked to my doctor all about it. I'm sure they would be able to share with you more than I could though. :)

First round ligaments support your uterus.
If you move to fast and get a pain in the side of your belly kinda low down its the ligaments. It only lasts a few seconds and usually happens when you move to fast, or the wrong way.

OH BOY YES i have those now and have had them forever!! especially when im still for awhile and then i go and move!! at first i swore my pubic bone was broken thats how bad it hurts me. unfortuneatly it is ligament pain and theres really nothing you can do to prevent it. my dr said even tylenol prob wouldn't do much. but i feel your pain if its any consolation! GOOD LUCK and just try and move around alot dont give your body too much stiffening up time thats when its the worst. you cantry things like sleeping with a pillow between your legs but it does nothing for me! GOOD LUCK AND CONGRATS!! im not sure if its the same ligaments yoru describing, mine might be lower.

When I had it I thought is my appendix. For me it was a sharp pain low on my belly on the right side. It was worse when I streched out, but got better when I pulled my knees to my chest.
