Stretching eh?
So uh, I was having these sharp pains in my abdomen and I am not going to lie, it made me a little uneasy. Anything new in pregnancy has the possibility of being normal or bad and it's hard to decipher having never done this before. When the pain would come on I would just touch my tummy and rub it a little and breath to calm any fearful thoughts out.
I ended up asking my sister and she mentioned it was probably Round Ligament Pain which basically is the uterus stretching and prepping for your baby and causes sharp pains in the abdomen. Always such a relief to know things are in the normal category. Although this often happens in the beginning of the second trimester it is not uncommon for it to occur before.
