I've been getting really sharp pains in my lower back and my abdomen for the last hour now, it's not easing up? Is this normal or should I go get it checked out???

Yeah I went to outpatients, they checked me out and said that it's probably just round ligament pain. However the doctor that checked me out didn't really seem to know what he was doing. All he did was took a urine sample and felt my stomach, he didn't listen to the heartbeat or anything. I have an ultrasound on monday, and I see my obgyn. I'll just let him know that i've been having pains. I don't think it's anything to worry about, there is no bleeding or anything like that, and the pain is gone now. I think it's just because i'm really tiny, so it's probably just my muscles and all that stretching to make room for the baby.

Oh yeah, the doctor also said that the fundus is a bit higher than it's suppose to be right now, so I may be further a long than I though, woo hoo....

Try a warm compress or hot bath to help ease the pain,, he was checking for an infection at the outpatient thing.

Good luck hun. Oh yeah you can also take tylenol to help

I am going through the same thing right now and the doctor said b/c I am small I might have to stretch more. It is probably round ligament stretching.
