I am 6 days into my 28th week. I get checked everytime I go into the doctor or hospital to which I've made a 7 trips to between yesterday and today. I think they are sick of me but these pains won't leave me alone. I have been well taken care of by my doctors and everyone since I got pregnant but this fall and these pains have me worried.

It sounds like it could be Braxton Hicks - similar to labour pains - they are common - but nothing to worry about. All the best :)

Ask your doctor or midwife for a scan or ask if you can listen to the baby's heart this should put your mind at rest. Braxton Hicks contractions are painless, so I don't think its that. however I do know that it's not unusual to experience pain like that at this time in pregnancy, don't forget your tummy and insides are stretching to accommodate your baby this can't happen without a certain amount of pain, your baby is most probably having a growth spurt right about now. Your doctor should be putting your mind at rest if not try talking to your midwife/carer explain how anxious you are but 9 times out of 10 if they say all is well, then you have nothing else to go with but that. relax and rest often you will be fine. Good luck hun.

any pain in pregnancy is a worry the hospital don't mind really .what sort of pain ?is it braxton hicks do they come and go with tightening round your tummy ?which is normal or are they pains that shot up from you pelvic which could be a infection in your water .i had a lot of pain with my pregnancy and had to where a support belt to lift baby up from my pelvic it helped .but it was my eighth baby .i also got an infection which caused me pain and went into labor at 34 wks .if in doubt go back to your GP.and best of luck

First of all I have to say that your first answer received was just stupid - people can be cruel sometimes, you are going through enough already without stupid answers like that. Go back to the doctor, make them listen to you and explain that you are not going to leave unless you get anwers that will put your mind at rest. Trust your instincts.

Maybe you have HIV/AIDS.
