in the 3rd tri, i started getting this cramp like pain, almost like a trapped nerve electric shock kind of pain. i mean really BAD. now im 40 weeks and 2 days. sometimes its so bad i just cry. the ob says its probably the babys head jammed up against a nerve. i hope it all goes away after the birth. it has really crippled me this last 2 weeks.

Wow Sarah -- you're so close and still on the computer! Your nerve pain sounds awful -- good luck with everything and here's to a smooth birth and a healthy baby. It does sound like a pinched nerve with that shooting/electric pain. Let's hope it clears up immediately. Isn't Mother Nature mean?! My pain has eased up heaps (long may it last!). I think regular horizontal stints and the donut cushion at work have really helped. Enjoy your baby and not being pregnant anymore!

I am 7 weeks along. This is my 7th pregnancy, I've had 4 miscarriages and 3 beautiful kids! I too have had horrific pain on both sides off and on, enough to wake me up in the middle of the night. I was very concerned at first but thinking back, I had this same thing happen with 2 of my full term pregnancies! My doctor said I was fine this time, as I was with my others.

AF is "Aunt Fern" - commonly known as your period. I am about 4-5 weeks and I have pulling/cramping sensations in my lower tummy. I don't think you can gauge the sensation in terms of weeks. I think it may have to do more with the size of woman and the type of shape she's in. I am very tiny. Only weigh about 100 pounds and I'm 36 years old. I think I feel it earlier because I'm little.

Hi, I haven't confirmed my pregnancy yet but I am 2 weeks late, having several symptoms and had a negative test. Just today I started getting the pain in my groin when I sit down or stand for too long, in my first pregnancy I thought I was suffering from a cyst which I get often but I guess it could have been ligaments, anyway here I am rambling, I'm glad I found this forum because I was beginning to think I might have been having a miscarriage but I'll test again soon and hope things go ok. Thank you all for giving me some hope :)

Hi everybody -- just a follow up reply as promised: my pelvic pain turned out to be varicose veins but they're INTERNAL! So the pressure is v____al & around the exterior genital area. It's very uncomfortable at times and my doctor said not much can be done except regular horizontal stints to ease the pressure. I may try one of those maternity belts soon as well. Good luck everybody. cheers!

Charlene, don't keep your head in the sand. A pregnancy test is only $5 or less from the drug store and you know in minutes. You need to know either way -- if you are pregnant, you'll need to start taking good care of yourself and make some important decisions. If not, you need to see your doctor to figure out why. Good luck!

I am 14 weeks and I am having really bad stomach pains... Kind of like cramps but I'm not sure that's what it is. I feel like I have gas because I seem to be burping alot which I never used to do. I get a sharp pain around my belly b___ton and then if I burp it alleviates it. Has anyone ever experienced this?
