okay I'm almost 18 weeks Friday and I have been getting bad cramps like on the top of my belly idk if it's from stress or I do way to much idk but I can't even sit down without it hurting any suggestions?!?
@emkasting, I can try lol and yes it very hard with my girls especially when my two year old act like she 20 already lol she tried shaving her legs lol she thinks she one of the guys as well since I live with my parents til we find a home I like lol so I have brothers and they pick on her to toughing her up lol it funny but that mouth of her drives me crazy lol especially when her dad at work it like ww3 with me and her when he home she an angle so yeah lol
Oh yeah ha resting definitely would be hard with those demands! But as far as drinking water goes, I'm not a huge fan of it either I can't drink it unless it's like ice ice cold, would that help you? If not maybe try Gatorade G2 or pedialyte :)
@emkasting, thanks that means alot lol and I tried the rest thing but it kinda hard with a 2 year old and a 10 month old ha-ha and I can't drink water idk why I just cant I tried but I end up puking it up lol it just when I sit down or lay down my belly gets so tight I can't breath have the time I am gonna try and wait til may 4 cause we get to find out what it is along with an appointment afterwords my mom thinks it allergies with the cramping type feeling on top my belly due to my last one I was up 3 day like this before but crying and holding my belly but I was further along with her I was just curious on what it could be since I'm only almost 18 weeks I have never had this til now and I will tell you it sucks lol
It says it's most common in second trimester but I felt it a lot in the first trimester too. It is caused by the thick bands of ligaments that run on either side of your abdomen stretching to accommodate the growing uterus. Nothing to be concerned about, very normal! But if you feel concerned still you can always call your doc for peace of mind, no shame in that. Shit I've been to the er like 3 times during my pregnancy for things that turned out to be normal, but it was totally worth it for peace of mind. The cramping you're feeling could also very well be dehydration, try drinking a few glasses of water and resting for a while and see if the cramping eases up :)
idk what it is but I can't lay down without hurting I have never had this with my other two and sometimes when I relax I can feel my belly just let go and expand out lol if u know what Ieaning @babyelkins2016
