Hey beautiful mommies I have a question! I’m having cramping and a swollen left pelvic/ growing area. I’m 16 weeks and this is mildly painful. Any idea what it is?

Not sure what that could be...😕😕😕 Have you reached out to your OB yet?

Yeah. I talked to the ob and we think it’s constipation he recommended a mild stool softener and it helped . Also I had to increase my water intake

@whitmom2be18 Awesome you got to see him! I know it's hard to drink plenty of water during this time. They advice I was given was to try stool softeners too. I started to incorporate a cup of jello or pudding in my diet once a day (usually as a dessert), and I had a either a 16 oz water bottle and drank at least 4 of those during the day.

What kept me motivated in more water was learning it was helping my baby's amniotic fluid stay full over time for him to swim around in. So, I kept it up to make sure he was good. When, I got tired of water, I jazzed it up with a lemon or orange slice. Every now and then, one or two Propel flavored water a month.

Now, I can't stay away from water!! 😂😂😂😂 Apples or apple juice is great too! I drink like maybe 2 glasses juice in a couple of days during the week. Got to watch that sugar. 😊😊😊
