Round ligament pain?

Question

I'm 17w4d and all day today I had this on and off pain that reaches from the left side of my pelvis up through the side of my hip and into my lower back. It feels like a pulled muscle almost, but it didn't hurt continually, just periodically through the day. I'm a FTM so I'm not sure what is to be expected but from what I could find out on google, it sounds like round ligament pain maybe? TIA for your thoughts/experiences!

Answer

I say round ligament pain. I knew about it from google and comments. But once you feel it it’s no joke. I’ve had off and on pain and cramping since I found out I was pregnant. But Wednesday I was in way more pain on my right side. It hurt like hell to get up or sit down. Then when I first stand and start walking it hurt like hell. Then would ease up after some time. I was so nervous I went to the doctor. Doctor said it’s round ligament pain. And for me to sit and stand slowly. Go up and down stairs slowly. I was in a lot of pain Wednesday but Thursday I was okay. Had some pain in the evening. It comes and goes. Some days are worse than others.  But going to the doctor will give you piece of mind to hear a doctor tell you what it is. I’m a first time mom. So I’m worried all the time lol.
