Pelvic Pressure?

Hey guys!

Having trouble describing the one and only symptom I've had so far. Its not really crampy or painful, but more feels like really dull, vague pelvic pressure/fullness. Anyone else having this? It feels kind of like when I have AF but without the cramping. It sometimes is uncomfortable when I lay on my stomach. Anyone else??

    YES! Ob says this is completely normal and that we are just "more in tune" with our bodies and feel the pressure more. You may also start to feel some ligament stretching soon right around the hip flexor area... FUN!

    I think this is how I would describe what I feel most as well.  I want to call it cramping, but it's just not the same.  It's more like I can just feel my insides around my uterus.  So weird and hard to explain, but definitely there.  I feel better when I move around.  It's almost hard to concentrate on anything because it's constant.  Doesn't hurt though.

    I didn't have this with my first pregnancy but I did with my second.  It won't be long until that turns into RLP (round ligament pains).  Just enjoy the fullness while it lasts.

    I have this too!  And I don't remember it with my first.  I was just reading on WTEWYAE's website and it said at this said stage of the pregnancy and pressure feeling or a feeling of fullness in your pelvis was completely normal.

    Just you wait first time moms.  One day when you sneeze (starting in first tri) you'll get this really bad pain down below and may yell ouch wondering what the heck that was.  It WILL happen more than once (but stopped by 2nd tri for me).  Round ligament pain.  Can't wait for that again:)

    I have the same thing.  The easiest word to call it is cramps, but it doesn't feel anything like AF like cramps, just more of a twingey ache.  It's a new one, for sure.  Not complaining. :)

    Sometimes it feels like a full bladder, but I just went to the bathroom. And I have hip pain already.

    I feel that too. I'm very glad you posted this because I was beginning to think I was the only person to feel like this.
