Round ligament pains?

mamamonymamamony member
in 2nd Trimester
I am 18 weeks pregnant with my third a little girl. I have 2 boys 7 & 5. I know it's been a while... But I feel like I'm having A LOT of pain cramping tightness in my lower abdomen. The doctor says it's round ligament pain, but I never remember this with my boys. I got in really good shape before I got pregnant with #3 so maybe my muscles are stretching, but u wondered if anyone else was feeling this or experienced this.

    I was told by my midwife that round ligament pain tends to get worse with each subsequent pregnancy. This sounds totally normal.

    I was feeling it by 11-12 weeks this time. Some days, I even get the pain just by sneezing!

    Yep, I get it too, pretty much exactly as you described, OP. My doctor says it's normal.
