Lower abdominal pressure?

Question

I’m 18 weeks and the past week or so I’ve had some very mild/dull pain in my lower abdomen. It doesn’t really hurt, just feels like pressure. If I lay on my stomach (I know I’m not supposed to, don’t worry) that’s when I really feel it. Is this normal?

Answer

It can be a sign of an uti if you have any other symptoms pointing towards that.

Answer

Pretty normal! Get used to that pressure sensation. As baby grows they definitely do a number on you. Definitely try to avoid laying on your belly (although I know it’s tough I’m a tummy sleeper) if it gets to be sharp/shooting that’s not normal but otherwise that mild dull uncomfortable feeling, I hate to tell ya it’s gonna get worse before it gets better. Hang in there!
