17+5 Pain/Cramping with pressure
Hi, I am 17+5 weeks today. Since yesterday, whenever I bend over or am in a position that causes pressure to be around my belly, I have a pain that feels similar to a period cramp. It’s not severe, but definitely hurts. Whenever I stop doing whatever movement caused it, it stops hurting and it only a bit uncomfortable for a while. I noticed this when I was in the car yesterday and bent over in my seat to pick up something I had dropped in the floorboard. It feels like a lot of pressure, and is very uncomfortable. I also noticed the same pain whenever I was shaving my legs in the shower tonight. Both positions put pressure on my belly. If I put light pressure on my belly with my hand, it’s uncomfortable but not as much. This may be obvious or a stupid question, but I’m a first time mom and really anxious about every thing. I’ve also had an increase in discharge the last couple of days.
