Question for 2nd (or more) Moms-to-be

MaybeBaby2 · October 2010

I remember and think I have felt some round ligament pain this time around. But last night I had what felt stronger than RL pain, almost like quick muscle spams for about 10-15 minutes (off and on). Very sharp and stabbing with no spotting whatsoever.
I talked to my OB's nurse and she thinks it was just strong RLP. We just saw the baby on Tuesday and things were awesome.

Has anyone else experienced anything like this? A friend of mine said she had a lot more pains with her second baby and just want to see what you all have felt.

I definitely am feeling a lot more pain much earlier now. It's insane!

My RLP is way more intense and started much earlier this time around. I've had a bit of a cough, and if I'm not in the right position (to brace myself!) it KILLS. Ouchie.

This is baby #3 for me and at my 1st OB appt., I was only 7w5d and had been having VERY sharp RL pains for a week or two prior to that 1st appt...

IMHO, after baby #1, EVERYTHING comes earlier... the belly, the feeling kicks, the RL pain..

I've had this with my second child and I anticipate it even more so perhaps with my 3rd. They say that the more those muscles have been stretched out the sooner you start to feel things and the more intense they seem because those muscles are more laxed and your sense of feel is hightened by that!

Definitely feeling them earlier and stronger here.

Although I don't get RLP as frequently as I did with my first, it is definitely more painful when it occurs. Like that kind of pain that you're doubled over until it subsides.

Definitely sharper and earlier this time.

I'm definitely feeling more pain earlier. Some are pains I don't remembering feeling with DS until I was well into my 2nd tri. I try to think that it just means everything is growing and baby is doing well!
