Weird zapping pain

Started last night but I’ve been having a weird pain it just feels like a quick zap and then goes away for a few minutes and then happens again. It only last a second or two. It’s kind of where my torso meets my leg and in the left side. Im 12 weeks. Anyone else experiencing this? I have an appointment with my dr Friday. So try not to worry since I see him this week.

Maybe round ligament pain? Does it happen when you move suddenly, or sneeze?

I just called my ob about this exact thing but mines more on the right and right below belly button. It’s been coming on and off for a few days now.

I had a similar experience about 2-3 weeks ago but on both sides. I agree with Kayleigh, because it goes away and doesn't last it's likely round ligament pain. It's best to just rest and eventually they go away. Good luck

that happens sometimes. It feels a little different

whey did your dr say?

I think I do need rest. this has been the busiest I’ve been since getting pregnant. I’m a full time cosmetology student and barista. Usually I have a day off on Sundays but everyone asked for the day off so I haven’t really had a true day off since New Year’s Eve.

I have an appointment Friday and I added to my list of things to ask him about.

: they gave me an appointment to go see my OB on Wednesday! But said most likely it’s from all the internal stretching going on.

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Hey what are your current symptoms?

I’m 37+5

I’m pretty mobile still but anything over a hour or 2 and I’m in discomfort

Getting up from a sitting position is hard

Some of baby’s movements now are bordering on painful especially around my crotch/pelvis

I’m exhausted very easily and nap every single day

Can basically only breathe out my mouth now and I’m snoring and dribbling 😂

Standing in one leg is very painful 😂

Some waves of pain/ tightening but I regular and mild

Low period type aches

And I feel like a fire breathing dragon with this acid reflux

My nose is growing 😂

My fingers swell slightly and go numbs in my sleep so that and constant toilet breaks keep me up ( checked swelling with MW and consultant and all normal, not a worry)

I also do not want to be social in person like I’d rather everyone just be my penpal atm lol

What are your symptoms?

Planned c section

Has anyone had a planned c section and been home the same day?

C section compression socks

Hey ladies when did you ditch the compression socks and how mobile were you when you did? I’m so done with them! 6 weeks tomorrow since the op and im walking around the house doing jobs and baby care but not really out and about yet (the odd day I am) is it safe to ditch the socks?
