It's most likely just a phase. I've had that kind of stomach soreness occasionally, I think it happens as your stomach is stretching. You'll feel it for a little while, then it goes away.

I've had intermittent soreness at certain points, but I think I only notice it for a day or 2 and then it goes away. It does feel like soreness from doing crunches though!

For me, it has come and gone for several days at a time throughout this pregnancy.

It is probably a phase for the moment. Are you just now starting to show?

[picksthemusic]

It came in phases for me. I'd hurt for a week or two, then I'd be fine. For a while, I felt like I was being whacked in the crotch with a baseball bat. Not pleasant. Most likely it's just growing pains. Your body is growing to accomodate baby!


ETA: Warm baths and massage can help.

Talk to your ob/gyn. My belly button, specifically, started to feel very uncomfortable a few weeks ago. It turns out that I have an umbilical hernia. Waaaaa.

It kind of comes and goes for me. Shifting position helps. Taking a warm bath at the end of the day helps. Certain foods make me so bloated and I have figured out what a lot of those are and eliminated them and that helps. Unfortunately, sometimes nothing helps.

Hang in there!

Wait. I thought we weren't allowed to take baths. Or is that only after we give birth for x number of weeks?

Not that I'm a big bath taker.

You can't take a super hot bath, but you can take a bath. After birth I know I had bath restrictions but I think that was because of my c-sec?

I thought my abs were sore from puking. Hmmmm...
