I'm a little scared here and not to mention I'm trying to stay calm while I'm really freaking out on the inside. I never ever ever do this but for the first time during this pregnancy I carried my 5 year old (40lbs even) to bed a little while ago. I know I shouldn't have but he fell asleep on the couch and he's on a medication at night (clonidine) that makes him really drowsy so I couldn't have him just walk to his room. Well. Once I reached down and picked him up I felt a "stretch" in my lower abdomen and it freaked me out. I'm not cramping or anything and the baby is moving around like crazy but I'm still upset and frightened. It just kind of hurts a little when I bend down now. Has anyone else had this doing something not light duty and their not suppose to be doing?? I just can't get this off my mind and I always over think the worst. :/

Don't stress, I totally carried my 60lb 6 yr old a little bit during this pregnancy. Just be cautious doing it. Don't strain to pick him up. I'm positive you're fine, the muscle may be tender. You can always call your dr if you're super worried

I carry my 48lbs 4 yr old up the stairs to bed every night carry groceries in one shot by myself and throw out big bags of trash lol it's scary when you feel that stretch but it's cause you don't do any heavy lifting and when you do you feel that rip pain but it's cause your body got used to you relaxing I get that pain all the time when I relax from heavy lifting them lift something out of no where

My fiancé is currently mad at me for even doing it so I can't exactly tell him I'm worried or feel some weird stretching when I bend over now :/. I'm never doing that again, it's scared me so much! He's moving like crazy so I believe all is fine 😁

@sammie_bell, thank you! It just feels like really tight my whole lower abdomen and it pulls when I get up from laying down or when I bend over. I think I could've just pulled that muscle.

Lol yeah I have no choice cause I'm alone with my kids but that's what usually happens or if I go crazy and clean without taking breaks I get sharp pains in my abdomen area @carolinamom91
