Pressure/Adjustment of ute when going from sitting to standing?

charmcitygirl · October 2008

I've noticed in the last couple of days that when I go from sitting for a while (like at my desk) to standing, there is some light pressure from my uterus. It almost feels like its in one position when I sit and then needs to move a bit when I stand. It only lasts for a moment and it doesn't continue while I'm standing or walking...just initially when I stand up.

Anyone else have this? I just had an appointment last week and it wasn't really happening so I didn't mention it. I just want to make sure its not something more serious.

TIA!

I have been feeling the same thing for quite some time. I just figured it was the repositioning of the baby or uterus or bladder or something when I stand. I feel like I have to go to the restroom. Most times I do to relieve the pressure. But I have noticed that there are times it just goes away like you're talking about. I think we'll be noticing a lot more pressure type feelings as the weeks go on.

I have felt the exact thing since about the mid-20's to even now. My OB says it's like BH contractions and totally normal. As my belly has grown, they've gotten quite a bit more painful. Everytime I get up at night to go to bathroom or change positions, my belly is rock hard.

me 2. It happens when I toss and turn at night sometimes too but mostly when I go from sitting to standing. It just gets really hard and tight and I thought it was just BH. It happens more lately then it did when I was in the 2nd trimester. Now it happens pretty much any time I am sitting and stand up. It doesn't really hurt.. just uncomfortable.
