I dont know what this is. *Update #2*

edited August 2011 in Third Trimester
Ok, so I've had a really normal pregnancy. No bleeding, no fetal distress, nothing. I'm nearly 36 weeks now and the very top of my uterus hurts so bad. It's at its worst when I stretch out. I don't think its Braxton-Hicks or contractions because its constant. I'm not sure if something could be wrong or if my baby just turned into a weird position while I was napping and he's hurting me. My baby is still moving around once in a while (he's usually not too active at this time) so I'm not super super worried, but I can't help but be concerned. It's 2 am here and my doctor's office is closed until Tuesday so I'd have to call the hospital. What do you ladies think? I really hope somebody is awake! :)

  • Sometimes the top of my uterus hurts when I just wake up. It's like a dull pain, but a pain nonetheless. I don't think it's anything to worry about unless it gets worse, or doesn't go away in about an hour or so.
  • Is it on the right side? Id call the hospital and see what they say...right side could mean preeclampsia. Other than that it could just be positioning but just in cased id call.

    It's not dull, its sharp. I just straightened my back and I doubled back over.
    @caitiecakes
    It's kind of on my right side. He also kicks me on my right side so idk, it could still be him. Hmm. I think I'll call the hospital.
  • I had the same thing with my son during the end of my pregnancy. Its because he was breech and his head was pushing up. It is a sign of preeclampsia so I would be checked.
  • Mine used to hurt to, everything has been pushed about. but as @beautiful_altar said its a sign of p-e get checked!
  • *Update*
    I'm in L&D now about to get checked. The pain got worse, so I called a nurse and she recommended that I go to the hospital just in case. I'm a little nervous, but I don't think I'm going into labor or anything. I wouldn't mind coming home with a baby tho! ;)

    Sorry for the late update, I've been really tired lately and I just got up.
    Turns out it was nothing. I walked 1 1/2 miles to my doctor's office the other day and it was just too much strain. It was pretty cute to see the baby's heart beat go up whenever Shane talked to my tummy so it wasn't a totally boring visit.
