So I’m 28 weeks FTM, and haven’t had too much discomfort this pregnancy so for (or at least nothing out of the ordinary) but last night I woke up in so much pain! It was underneath my bellybutton, the span ranged from hip to hip with a bit of tightening in the front center above my bellybutton. It lasted about 20-30 minutes and at first I thought it was gas pain, but there was something different. More like a really bad menstrual cramp - like the kind that makes you a bit dizzy. The only relief I got was when I laid on my back, concentrated on breathing, and tried to stretch my knees to my chest. After a while it all of a sudden it stopped.

I was thinking it might’ve been a Braxton Hicks, but aren’t they not that painful? And don’t they only last a few minutes???

Does anybody have any idea? And should I be worried?
