edited March 2011 in Second Trimester
I'm 19 weels and having pain on my left side to in front of my hip bone. It goes about 4 fingures infront of my hip bone. Asked the dr about it and she said sounds line growing pains. They hurt really bad I can't sleep thru the nigght or get comfy at all. I have never felt pain like this before in my life. Anyother ideas or what I can try. Please help.

  • might be sciattica (sp) nerve pain. i kno alot of women on here have posted about it
  • That sounds like how I felt when my appendix ruptured...
  • but its on her left not right so it shouldnt be her appendix
  • I had sharp pain on my right side.. but close to my crotch/leg area.... real bad!! Havent had them in a few days... Thank God
  • I have the same problem. But I notice it to be when the baby moves a certain way. I find laying on my knees and letting my belly hang will sometimes help.
  • Actually the appendix is on the right. But if it were that there would be way more symptoms. Sounds like it is growing pains or gas. You can try a heating pad. Good luck.
  • Thanks ladies for all the help. I will be trying everyones ideas.
  • It sounds like ligament pain. Its the tendons stretching around your uterus. I get those pains a lot and stretching/yoga helps a lot. Siatica (which ive also had) is a shooting pain in ur back that shoots down ur butt and thigh. I hope u find some relief! Good luck!
  • This all started last week on Sunday. I went to the dr and the thought I had kidney stones or a kidney ifection. Tested for both and neg. I go back to dr on Friday again.
  • My friend had this same problem her pelvis is small and when her hips spread because she was so much more narrow there, it hurt so bad that she couldn't even move. So it is kinda growing pains but its your hips and pelvis expanding, more painful for some women then others. Try stretching and deep breathing maybe. yoga might help. Good luck.
  • I have the same thing and my doctor told me it was a ligament stretching and its gunna keep stretching it gets really bad tho!
  • Yes I have same pains and lower back pain and nerve pain
    my doc said its normal and I need to stretch more and more water and walking...
    stretching doesn't work for me but walking kinda does...
    its sucks but its normal..
    my back hurts so bad sometimes I don't want to move... its the nerve pain but when u can move stretch out(:
