Sharp pains when coughing/sneezing

Does anyone else feel sharp pains when they sneeze or cough in the lower stomach area? I just sneezed and a sharp pain went thru what I would say is my ovaries area on both sides.  Has anyone else ever felt that??

Thank goodness I'm not the only one. I've been fighting a cold and the coughing and sneezing is making me crazy. I try to grab my stomach when I know it's coming. Seems to ease the pain a little. So happy to hear its normal!

Omg yes! At first I was scared but the doctor said it was normal. I usually bend down and hold my lower stomach and it helps

Try bringing your knees up when you sneeze or cough. It relieves alot of the pain :)

Very normal, it's from all the stretching. Even early on your uterus is growing and stretching the muscles and ligaments that support it.
