Pain spreading

[Kelly87]

Hey ladies. About 2 weeks ago I was getting this burning pain in my side for a while so my boyfriend took my to the ER and they said that it was nothing. I was thinking maybe gallstones or something but they didnt see anything wrong. I am still getting the pain and now its spreading to my back and to my left side also. What do you think it could be? Should I go to L/D? I dont want to bug them in there if its nothing...

It could be an ulcer.  I have had ulcers before and the pain was in the same place and I had the same symptoms you are describing.

I will be 31 weeks tomorrow. Ive had it for a while but now its spreading. Im hoping it is just ligiment pain. Its like a burning pain...

Do you think it could be kidney stones? Those make you feel like you're going to die. Honestly, I don't know what was worse, kidney stones or giving birth, since my epidural wore off during THAT.
I remember my side hurting REALLY bad with kidney stones. Thought it was my appendix, and actually called 911 at 4 in the morning.
I wasn't pregnant when I had them, but I just remember the intense pain in my side and towards my back.

I'd go to the dr and get them to check for kidney stones. Of course, if it is, I don't know that there's anything they can do...you just have to pass them.

Hopefully, it IS just ligament pain!

I had burning pain from weeks 25-30 and they diagnosed it as my ligaments streching.... I was very small framed when I became pregnant. I was 100lbs so it was my muscles streching.... How far along are you?
