Hi,
I am 36 weeks pregnant & the last couple of nights I've been having major issues with sleeping. I've been having sharp/crampy/striking pains in my vagina... more towards the outside on the left hand side.
It comes and goes every hour or few hours lasting for minutes? It's hard to explain.
I don't have a midwife appt until next week but I just thought I'd ask the question here and see if I got any replies from other women who have experience this or whatever?!

Thanks in advance,

I've been having the same pains over the past week or so. They can get so severe that it stops me doing whatever I'm doing at the time. I'm 41 weeks this friday, I thought that perhaps they were just more braxton hicks. If anyone does know the answer though I'd be interested too! smile

Im 33 weeks and have been getting the same pains for about 3 weeks now but it usally is only in the mornins when i get up and usally only lasts half the day. What causes it?

Hey,

Im almost 13 weeks pregnant and I get a random stabbing, short pains all around different areas of my stomach and uterus. i understand it is normal to get pains either side of your uterus but theses pains aren't always there. It is usually worse after going bathroom if I have needed to for a while, or after sex sometimes. Was just wondering if you knew what it is.

|Thanks

I had a little bit of that around 16-17 weeks but all good and i'm now 36w 4d. If you are really worried go to your midwife or doctor. Good luck.

Hey I am getting the same problem, i've been told by a antenatal physio that it is just the pressure of your baby and uterus stretching your ligaments and muscles. Is the pain like stabbing when you try to get up and move around to quickly, or on your feet to long, and sometimes after sex.

Hi,
My doc told me today that i was 5/52 gravid,what dose this mean ?

Im 13 weeks and bled after sex last night. is this normal?

Hiya,

I'm ill at the moment, well atleast I think I am. It's nothing I think I should worry about, I just have heaps of flem and a hard cough. Could be tonsillitis? Well anyways my question was, at nights when I cough my lower abdomin gets a sharp pain (usually where I think the baby is lying), is that normal?

Totes know what you mean. I've been having that problem since I was like 23ish weeks, I even feel tired but cannot go to sleep. So I just lie down watching tv until I dose off. Also a hot bath can do the trick sometimes.

Hi, I am currently 31 weeks and 4 days pregnant. I was admitted to hospital yesterday cause my GP noticed bub had an erratic heartbeat, going from 180 down to 115 and back up again all in the space of 5-10 mins. They did a running heartbeat at the hospital, it was within normal range give or take a few that went up over the 40 mins but sent me home saying everything was alright.

I have a gut feeling that something isn't ok. His movements have slowed down a lot in the last 3 days, now this heartbeat stuff, im insanely tired and have pains all over. I feel I should of asked for an ultrasound while I was there to put my mind at ease. I have found the nursing staff to be quite dissmissive of my concerns but my partner is pushing me to go back and be seen again. I don't know what to do?! are my concerns valid or am I just being a crazy mum-to-be and worrying to much?

Cheers unsure

I am having Monoamniotic (momo) twins and I was just wondering if you have heard of them before and if you have any advise for me.

I am 6w5d pregnant and am having constipation problems. Last night I put my finger down near anus to apply small pressure to help get motion out. When I removed finger it was covered in blood. I wasn't gushing but there was certainly alot of blood there. I can't feel any hemeroids there (I suffered from these in my previous pregnancy)Should I use a laxative or go and see Dr?

Hi,

I am currently only 4 weeks and 3 days. I had a lot of cramping around 4 weeks but it is slowly easing, I still have the full feeling and very sore bb. Is this normal.
