Round Ligament Pain?

Jasmine

I am at 16 weeks and have been having round ligament pain the past 4 days. I’ve talked with a nurse at my clinic and she suggested wearing a maternity belt and to take Tylenol every 4 hours. I ordered one on amazon and am waiting for it to arrive today. The pain goes away when I’m not moving but once I have to sit up, roll over, sit down, or even walk, it comes back. I haven’t left the house in 4 days! Thankfully my boss is understanding and allows me to work from home, but I do have to be in the office sometimes. I also have a bout of diarrhea which isn’t helping. Has anyone else experienced this? I can’t believe this pain is considered normal. What did you do to help alleviate it?
