Does anyone else get this kind of pain?

Every time I sneeze, I get a sharp lower abdominal pain!  It slowly goes away over the next 20 seconds or so.  Usually the pain is on the side, just above my pelvic bone.  Does this happen to anyone else??

I have been getting this pain with sneezing too.  I just hang onto my belly when I know it is coming.  
I have the weirdest most forceful sneeze ever since I have been pregnant.  Anyone else have a different sneeze with their pregnancy?

Yeah, I lose a little bladder control each time I sneeze too.  LOL.  Glad to hear this pain is normal.  As soon as I sneeze, the pain is so sharp, it takes my breath away from a few seconds.  Guess that's just apart of being pregnant!!!

Happens to me all the time. its annoying lol. When I sneeze, cough, laugh, or even with morning sickness.
I have no idea what is causing it either. Although, I also loose some bladder control from doing either of those things sometimes as well.

I think it is just the pressure pushing on your cervix and things down there. I get it too, only mine get pretty bad sometimes because I have scar tissue from 2 c sections as well. Its normal. No different than if you sit up in bed too fast and pull a little bit I think.

It has happened to me numerous times. Not sure why it happens...maybe a pulled muscle? or maybe your uterus stretching out and that is why you had the pain. But I have experienced it before.
