I get it, have done from the beginning really. If I cough or sneeze or turn over in bed I feel like I'm being stabbed in the lower right. If I bring my knees up towards my chest before coughing etc then it doesn't hurt. I think its normal
I'm ok after about 9am. I've been eating like its going out of fashion, need to calm it down really, don't want to put on any weight that's not baby xx
I had that when I was around 6 weeks. I sneezed and had a really sharp, shooting pain on my left. Not sure what caused it but must be common if we all got it xx
Morning Girlies!!! I have had a bit of this too and mymidwife explained
why this happens so I've found a page which explains it if it helps you all xx
In her book, "Human Physiology," Dr. Lauralee Sherwood explains the role of the ovaries in early pregnancy. While the ovaries produce and ovulate the egg that is fertilized during conception, these organs are also responsible for maintaining the integrity of an early pregnancy, until such time as the placenta has formed. After ovulation, the ovaries secrete high concentrations of estrogen and progesterone, which work together to maintain the lining of the uterus, into which the fertilized egg implants. The ovaries continue secreting these hormones until around the fourth month of pregnancy, at which point the placenta takes over. During this time, it's common for a cyst to form on the ovary that ovulated the egg that was fertilized to produce the pregnancy in question. These cysts, while generally harmless, can be uncomfortable. If the cyst is located on the right side, it's common for women to experience aching or stabbing pain in the right lower abdomen until around the fourth month of pregnancy.
I always have the pain, and most of my aches on the right. My main concern is obviously ectopic. I haven't had any of the other symptoms associated with ectopic but you still worry don't you.
Thanks for that hun x
