it is your ligaments and uterus stretching out it can hurt in your back too it can be very painful my dr told me that if it gets too bad you can take tylenol there are also some stretches you can do that will help

Im 23 and a half weeks and I had that same pressure/pain. Lying down for a lil bit helped me.

Dee is right, it is your ligaments stretching, not to worry. I have exactly the same, sometimes I curl up in a ball cause of the pain, but it goes away again. I wonder why it is worse for some women than for others though..hmmm.

Round ligaments on each side of the uterus attach it to the abdomen and hold it in place. During pregnancy, the uterus gets bigger to make room for the growing baby. This puts strain on the round ligaments and may cause pain. The problem is not serious. It is a normal part of pregnancy.

i have learned from carrying my children low that the lowere you carry the more pressure you have.

thank you! I'm 15 weeks and I've been having pressure (along with cramps/stetching & pulling) as well. I'm so glad to hear others refer to it as pressure - I was starting to think I had an incompetent cervix or something....
