Has anyone else ever experienced this? Kind of worried...

LOL! You're right, that does sound pretty gross, but I suppose that's a possibility too! However, I would imagine that if that had happened, I'd probably be in constant pain/discomfort, right? I've only felt this a few times, but I feel fine otherwise.

YES!! That's exactly what it's like for me too! The way you described it was way more accurate than my description. It's a very strange feeling, and just like you, there's no pain involved for me. It's had me a bit nervous though, as I've never felt anything like that before. However, the more comments I read, the more I'm convinced it's just a ligament thing. :agree: I'll check with my OB tomorrow and update here afterwards. Hopefully it's nothing to worry about, for either of us. When's your next appt?

Blech! That's creepy! LOL - I get grossed out easily. ;)

Its the ligaments hun i get it all the time when i sit up or move to quick in bed - had it with every pregnancy and is very common and normal. x

Yes I did have it this early with ds2 :)
Not yet this time but i was preg and got preg again so soon I was probably still a little stretched out lol

Thanks for all the replies, ladies! :agree: I had my scheduled prenatal appt today anyway, and asked my OB about it. She thought the very same thing - that it was just the ligaments. I also got to see the babies again today (quick u/s at each appt to see the heartbeats), so it makes me feel better that they are doing okay, too. I guess I was worrying over nothing, but wow, what a strange feeling this ligament thing is!

So glad you got to see the sweeties AND that you were reassured!! :) Very glad you're okay!!!

Thanks, Beadin! :)

Glad to hear all is ok Sweetpea!! My next app isn't for a couple weeks due to the holidays- so good to hear your OB thinks its ligaments too. Funny neither one of us has had this in previous pregnancies!!
