this pain in my side is ridiculous! its so sharp and makes any movement very painful.

@delilahsmonmy2015 I'm going to talk to my mom about it and then probably call my doctor. this is the fourth time its waken me up from sleep and I'm practically in tears whenever I move around :(

@delilahsmommy2015, oops that's what I get for typing with one eyeball open haha

thank you so much @delilahsmommy2015 it started last night around midnight and I tried walking it out but I sat back down on my bed as it was excruciating to stand up. so when I finally fell asleep it would wake me up. I tried putting a rolled up blanket underneath that spot and it would work for a few seconds then it'd be back to this stabbing pain. its the same spot and everything :(

have you been drinking enough fluids half being water? I would call your doctor just to be safe, that's what they're there for. I had horrible round ligament pains but what you're saying sounds more of my early contractions. I'm not saying it could be that but it sounds similar. how many weeks are you?

@parkers_mommy I just turned 18 weeks. I've been drinking water when I can other than that its been Gatorade with a few sodas. I am just in tears. my mom thinks its my uterus stretching and I'm like HELP ME!!

@14emathews, try drinking more water. labor & delivery told me to drink a gallon of fluids with half being water, because dehydration can cause contractions. Where exactly is the pain? & I know this is personal but does it hurt/burn to pee? uti/bladder infections happen more frequently in pregnancy, those can cause contractions too if they're bad.

@parkers_mommy oh wow I'll definitely drink more water now! no it doesn't hurt to pee. I had a uti in the beginning weeks of my pregnancy and have yet to get another one. thank you for the advice here

@14emathews, no problem. if you feel in your gut you need to see someone for the pain, go see someone, listen to your body & if nothing's wrong than you know what "safe pain" is for you & what pains to be more concerned about. sorry for my previous post, getting too personal.
