You could call your doctors office and ask them, but I think it is normal. It could be the way the baby is laying right now or postioned, or it could be ligament pain. Oh
does it hurt when you go pee or anything because it could be a uti or bladder infection.. Good luck to you hun

I was feeling a lot the same the day I went for a dr appointment at 19 weeks, and she told me it was "round ligament pain" and its pretty common around 20 weeks or so. Maybe that's what you're feeling too.

The uterus is actually "hanging" in 2 large and 2-3 smaller ligamnets. Remember that it now is stretched way up higher than normal, and thus all those ligamnets start hurting as well.

And unfortunatelty, they are also attached to everywhere else in the lower abdomen, just about to every major bone, so they hurt as well.

It will get better soon, though, when they get stretched out and adapt. You are just experiencing the growth spurt of the pregnancy right now.
