Hello ladies,
This is my first time pregnant and I just turned 14 weeks pregnant Saturday, however i have a few questions. I am feeling a few aches and pains in my stomach and right underneath my growing belly, but do not feel like there is anything wrong with my little one. I do feel like going to the bathroom every few hours and have to constantly adjust my positioIs whether its sitting or laying down due to feeling a bit uncomfortable. I am wondering is this normal? Is the baby doing just fine and the pain is due to stretching? and my last question has anyone else gone through this?

My advice to you is to get ready for LOTS of random aches and pains! You'll have a LOT of them over the next several months. The typical rule of thumb is that you're fine unless:
1. Pains bring bleeding; brown discharge is usually fine, as it's old blood, but put your feet up and drink lots of water. If it's pink, call your DR right away.
2. You get regular pains 5-6 times an hour and they don't stop after you put your feet up and drink water. Oftentimes, the pain (especially this early) is your body saying it needs fluids.
RLP (round ligament pain) can be like nothing, but it can hurt a LOT. Just be prepared for these and you'll be fine.
Thank you ladies. I have a lot of questions and get paranoid every now and then that my little one is not doing ok. But I dont feel like anything is wrong with my baby so im sure he/she is alright. I just get a little concerned sometimes since this is my first pregnancy and I truly dont know what to expect. Your advice really does help and helps put some of my concerns at ease. Thank you ladies I do appreciate your advice and help.
