Anyone having pressure?

LadyRoarsome

I'm 16 weeks today, and for the past week or so every time I go pee I feel quite a bit of pressure down there. I don't remember having this with E until I was much further along. Between the pressure and some cramping off and on that almost feels like braxton hicks I'm bringing it up with my doctor on Monday with my appointment since I'm so early. Just wondering if I'm alone.

Nope, you're not alone. I've been getting some sensations like that. I just posted about my lightning crotch! Lol!

Lightning crotch is some messed up shit, lol. I had it yesterday and I whimpered like a child. H of course thought I was losing my mind.

I definitely have BHs every time my bladder is full. Crazy!

I think it was here where I had heard that Braxton Hicks can start this early.

I guess my worry is really the pressure I'm feeling, which I'm sure is nothing. I just know it feels a lot like the pressure I had right before having E. It's not as 'heavy' is that makes sense, but there's a big difference between a 16 week and 39 week pregnancy.

I would call your Dr.  If it was me, I would want to get checked.  Do you have any history of IC or a low lying placenta?  Not to be a fear monger, but pressure (especially noticeable when emptying my bladder) was the 1st sign of my IC during my last pregnancy.
