is this normal???

Im 36wks and keep getting really severe pains and cramps in the very top of my right leg in my groin. its enough to make me stop what im doing and have to put pressure on the area to help ease the pain. Im kinda worried cause I've had all csections so i don't know if this is normal. at first i thought it may have been braxton hicks but its in my groin rather then my stomach.

I've had that a few times too, it really hurts! I was thinking it is probably the relaxin starting to kick in, plus I have hips which are too loose on a normal basis so pulling myself is really easy when the hormones let everything move further than usual. Glad I'm not alone!

thats either from abay bouncing on your pelvic floor causing electric shock sensations or it could be your syatic (sp) nerve, baby may be pressing against it when they move

it could possible be from baby putting pressure on nerves down there... i was and still sometimes get a sharp pain to shoot through my hip and vagina and i let my dr know this she said it was baby putting pressur on nerves by being in a certain spot.... but just in case i would let ur dr kmow whats going on maybe they can check it out

Maybe you pulled something or you're loosening up to make room to push? That's what I'd first think, I don't remember pain, but right on the inside where the leg n hip connect would get so uncomfortable from being tight, I'd bend it out n put enough pressure on to pop it. My right side still does it every so often
