early monday am-right around midnight, i woke up with severe lower right sided pain..hurt to walk or lay down..felt best (not good at all but better) when i stood...stuck with me for 5 hours! didn't go back to bed until 5am modnay am. took yesterday off and then felt a bit better. around 3:30 i had another attack which was worse....couldn't even walk or breathe right...so painful. called my ob and he got right on the phone..asked if it flet like a knife stabbing me and i said YES! he said it's perfectly normal.....round ligament pain....i asked him though, after reading that it's not supposed to last more than a few minutes and typically only comes from getting up or moving too quickly....i was just sitting on the couch resting....if this was normal for me not to be able to walk or sit...he said yes...i brought up appendicitis to be ruled out and he said it would be up further than i described and i would have other symptoms. so that was a relief. told me the only thing i could do was rest and get a heating pad. did that and for the most part i'm better with some mild pain on the other side this am but nothing like it was.
after this long vent, i was curious to find others out there that have had this severe pain as well.
i'm 23 weeks today. how much longer will my body be stretching and not liking it?!
thanks.
