Question

Answer 1

Call the OB/GYN and ask to speak with the advice nurse, or leave a message for your doctor. Only you know what feels right or normal for you. Trust your instincts. Would you be able to forgive yourself if you just let it go and it turned out to be something serious?

Answer 2

I know that your liver is on the right side. The only thing I could tell you is that you should try and lay on your left side. This would pull the baby away from your liver and give it time to do what it needs to do. Definitely tell your doctor what's going on.

Answer 3

It sounds like you should take the next 3 weeks off of work if you are still working and just stay at home, lay down or recline as much as you can. You doctor might tell you the same thing.

Answer 4

I never had that problem, but don't wait until the 5th, call your doctors office. They've heard everything and I'm sure have advice to give on everything.

Answer 5

honey i suggest laying down on your side and just trying to relax. i definetely feel your pain. i have two in my tummy that like to do the same thing. just take it easy and be patient, the baby is almost here. good luck and i hope you feel better.

Answer 6

try laying on the other side if its real uncomfortable call and see if you can get in sooner
