is this normal?

By the end of the day i start feeling my stomach real tense...bloaty...kinda sore. And when i get to bed it makes it very uncomfortable to sleep even with a pillow between my legs. Sometimes it even makes it hard to turn from side to side with an occasional stabbing feeling on my lower left side. Im only 9 weeks...is this normal?

If you can rest on your left side for a half hour a day as needed. It helps a lot. I probably take 2-4 breaks like that a day now and it really helps. Try a pillow between your knees in bed too.

Sounds like bowl distention. I had that pain alot in the beginning. Its from everything starting to move around in your abdomen to make room for your growing uterus. And the bloating is prolly gas. I would deffintly ask your doctor tho just in case. Good luck mama

I had what felt like sharp stabbing pains in the beginning as well. My dr. said it was ligament pain d/t the body preparing to get bigger My theory has always been better safe than sorry. Make sure to ask your dr. and dont feel like you're bugging them, thats why they make the big bucks!

I agree, talk to your doctor first and see what they say. I also had pains similar but I found out it was because I was constipated so often. If thats the case you can be perscribed colace, which will help a lot
