Belly Button

Any time I lift anything or bend back a little I feel a painful pull in my belly button to my vaginal area. Why?! Does anyone else have this issue? I'm almost 7 weeks.

It's round ligament pain. Prolly the most common thing I hear on here  and In pregnancy period lol. The round ligament supports the uterus and stretches during pregnancy. It connects the front portion of the uterus to the groin. These ligaments contract and relax like muscles, but much more slowly. Any movement like going from a sitting to standing position quickly, laughing, sneezing, coughing, etc. stretches these ligaments by making the ligaments contract quickly, can cause a woman to experience pain that should only last a few seconds. Gotta take things a lot slowly now since your body Isn't the same and adjusting for baby.
