Okay, this is probably a wierd question, but I was wondering if anybody else had this problem. Sometimes, not every time, when I sneeze or cough, I get a sharp little pain in my tummy. It doesn't last long, and it's not unbearable, but it's a new feeling, and it worries me. ↓

mcbee, it happens to me sometimes too, the exact same thing you describe. I don't see my doctor again for 4 weeks, so I only plan to call if it gets really bad unless someone else thinks otherwise... ↑

hello mcbee
that has happened to me too...and i just had a u/s yesterday and an exam and all is well
Wow, I was afraid I'd sound silly if I asked that so I didn't! Yes that happens to me too! Or when I cough...I would imagine it is normal...Ibut nice to know it's happening to others! ↑

Me too! Sometimes I dread the coughing because it feels like it makes the uterus tighten up? I am glad that I am not the only one who has felt this! ↑

I experienced this with my first and was super worried, turns out its from all the stretching your uterus is doing. Its your round ligaments. The pressure from when you sneeze can stretch the ligaments a little further, and thats why it kinda hurts, like a sharp-stabbing pain. ↑

yup, it's all normal & perfectly fine to feel a lil pain when sneezing or coughing, like britt said it's all that stretching & what not that's going on in your bodies- wait til later when your babies are bigger & push on the siatic nerve- fun, fun. Lol ↑

I went to the doctor yesterday and I asked this question. She said it is perfectly normal, and it's just the ligaments spasming from the growing and what not. No worries! I heard the heartbeat loud and clear! ↑
