In the beginning it felt exactly like what you're describing. That stretching, almost a burning feeling and a slight crampy/dull ache. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/abdominal-pain#post-292162 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 13:59:52 +0000 tororojo 292162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had several days worth of RLP beginning the 12th week--at first I thought it was my ovaries, but then I decided based on Dr. Google that it was RLP. My doctor didn't seem concerned when I brought it up yesterday. I think that if you're not bleeding and you're not in severe/debilitating pain, you're probably fine. If you're in doubt on whether the pain is severe enough to merit a call, I say call--better safe than sorry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/abdominal-pain#post-292120 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 13:34:40 +0000 aprk 292120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks ladies. I think I am getting myself worked up and worried. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/abdominal-pain#post-292091 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 13:15:13 +0000 MamaMoose 292091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It sounds to me like the start of round ligament pain. If you can lay down and rest for a while in a comfortable position. And if it's bad enough, you can take tylenol too. Those two things should help. If they don't lessen the pain at all, then I would call your midwife. If they do, I think you're fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/abdominal-pain#post-292090 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 13:14:50 +0000 LivsMama 292090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my OB told me that anything that stopped me in my tracks or that was more severe than a menstrual cramp, or any bleeding, warrants a call </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/abdominal-pain#post-292079 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 13:12:07 +0000 aprk 292079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am 12 weeks today, having what feels like growing pains - stretching and some pinching in the lower abdominal.</p> <p>It feels more sore and achy than painful, but how do I know when it's "severe" enough to call my midwife? </p>
