35 and pregnant

Im 6 weeks pregnant with my forth child. Been having abdominal pain right around my belly button area a couple times already. Almost like a pulling painful sensation felt deep around that middle area. Its not something i feel everyday, i just felt it on day that i was on my feet a lot, walked most of the day, got home lay down and when i went to get up, i felt the painful pull, or stretching feeling. Kind a scared me because I've never experienced it before, after an hour or so of just laying still it slowly went away. Is thus common? Or any idea of what it might be? Thanks.

I had a lot of pains that felt like sharp pulling around my tummy in the first few months. It is the ligaments and muscles loosening up. Im now almost 31 weeks with my 4th. I think the more pregnancies you have, the more aches and pains you get. Nothing I did really helped as they came on randomly, but it did ease up and I haven't had any for quite a few weeks now.
