Pressure in lower abdomen- what is it?

Rhianna1981 · February 2012

Ever since about week 14 I will occasionally feel pressure in my lower abdomen- it feels like something is pushing. I have been thinking that it is probably the baby (that's where he is always found on the US or doppler), but could it be? I very rarely feel "flutters" that everyone talks about, so I am not sure if it actually is baby, or maybe braxton hicks?

Could be bloating or gas, could be stretching or BH. If it bothers you or worries you, ask your doc about it! I feel that from time to time, but I can tell the difference between that and baby, and they are nothing alike! lol!
