Called my OB the next morning, and she requested an abdominal u/s, not of the baby but primarily focused on my kidneys, liver, and gallbladder. Kidney stones, infection, and gallbladder issues are not uncommon during pregnancy. Everything turned out fine, but I've been really sore since then, painful to the touch in my right lower abdomen.<br /> I suggest getting to chat with your OB or their nurse as soon as available. Tell them exactly how painful you are, and push to be seen or have a u/s if you feel the need. I'm glad I did! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/abdominal-pain-during-pregnancy#post-1895267 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 12:49:42 +0000 Mamaof2 1895267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LAZB: hah - whenever I have gas my DH tells me "just fart' - yeah I wish it was that easy! Gas pains for me was never actually passing gas - just the intense pain! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/abdominal-pain-during-pregnancy#post-1895263 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 12:45:06 +0000 LAZB 1895263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I've been moving around the same amount, so I don't think that's it.<br /> I took Tums a little while ago, and nothing so far. I'll try picking up some gas-x after my meeting at 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/abdominal-pain-during-pregnancy#post-1895254 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 12:41:24 +0000 tororojo 1895254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you been less active than normal the past few days? I was hospitalized in the early 3rd tri (not pregnancy related) and after a few days in bed I got HORRIBLE RLP on the sides of my bump when I moved. Well, the nurse said it was RLP but I'm not 100% sure, just know that it was really bad and went away as soon as I started making myself move around regularly again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/abdominal-pain-during-pregnancy#post-1895230 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 12:30:58 +0000 LAZB 1895230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: maybe? I'm not gassy, as in nothing is coming out, but maybe it needs to? Haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/abdominal-pain-during-pregnancy#post-1895185 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 12:13:05 +0000 Mamaof2 1895185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>could it be gas pains? I had them terribly during pregnancy - gas-X was my BFF! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/abdominal-pain-during-pregnancy#post-1895161 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 12:05:07 +0000 LAZB 1895161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been having some abdominal discomfort for the past 4 days, but until today it felt mostly like being VERY sore, stretching, so I thought maybe RLP. This morning, though, it really ramped up, and I started also having actual jabbing pains, and it kept me from sleeping it was so bad. Now it is better, mostly just extreme soreness and discomfort.<br /> I don't have an upset stomach, am not constipated, and don't really know what this could be. It is more in my mid stomach/abdomen, and a little to the upper area. I called my doctor's office and my doctor is out today. The doctor on call just wants me to take tums and call back if I start a fever or the pain gets worse. I'm fine with that, even though I'm sure it's not a heartburn issue. I am going to my doctor for my A/S and 20 week appointment tomorrow, so I figure if it's nothing serious, it can wait another day.<br /> Any thoughts as to what this could be? </p>
