Painful baby movements...

[pinkbelle]

Everytime she moves around it has been hurting so bad.. Do you think its just because its getting so cramped in there? I mean last night she must have rolled over or something because it took my breath away.  Im almost 32 weeks now ... do you think tyelnol would help? Every time she moves I cringe because of the pain

I get those pains....Sometimes she wakes me up in the middle of the night and when I put my hand on my abdomen, there is a hard ball where she is stretching. It hurts like crazy! Then there are other times when she will kick or push near my belly button and I get a sharp pain there. I think it's just because her movements are restricted and my abdomen is stretched to it's limits....Just a few more weeks to go.....

That is how my pregnancy was.  The baby is just cramped in there.  I dont think tylenol will help.  This is just one of the many things pregnant women have to deal with.  Also for me the last week, I could have sworn my baby was going to bust right thru my belly button.  It hurt so bad I would have to hold my hand over it all day.

I would mention this to your doctor if I were you, I never really experienced any bad pain, although there were times where I'd go "ohh" and it pinched or something for a minute but went away.. Maybe it will get better the further along you get when she runs out of room to make such big movements and settles down some.. Although the poking of the hands/feet really isn't much better. :/ This sounds rather unpleasant. But hey, atleast you know she's healthy if she's that strong already! Hope you find some relief..

Everything is "squished" inside, she is definitely running out of room and will be bumping into various tender places when she moves.  I am 33 weeks and have experienced the same thing as you but it has never been to the point where I have felt the need to take pain killers - usually I only experience discomfort for a few seconds
