Pain

Im 16 weeks and for the last 3 weeks my abdominal area is hurting. When my bladder is full it hurts too. If I turn on the bed or lift my knee up my pelvic area hurts too. I asked the doctor and he said its normal but its to much I think. If I walk or sit too.

I've been hurting down there for some time now. I'm 18 weeks. Especially if I lay on my back in bed it'll start to hurt. I guess because baby and uterus are getting bigger there's so much pressure down there. I'm a ftm so it freaked me out at first too but since its been happening for a few weeks now I'm starting to get used to it lol

They did check for infection and I don't have any. It all started after I started bleeding and two big blood clots came out. They told me I had small placenta separation. But the doc said its healing. Im getting a trasvaginal ultrasound on monday to check my placenta. Im in bed rest for now.

Also ask your dr to check you for a bladder infection, that can cause pain and is very common

It's normal to hurt, just make sure you empty your bladder fully when you pee and that you have regular bowel movements. If you become constipated it can cause pain there lol
