I have been in and out of hospital because I am having so much pain, but they are saying its not contractions, but I hurt so bad and I'm just 22 weeks, did anyone start having these pains this early or at all?
Is it lower in the belly from middle around sides? Round ligament stretching pains would be my guess and yes they hurt sooooo bad. Hang in there. But if you ever feel like its more than just that trust your gut and head in.
Yes it is my lower stomach like about 2 inches below my belly button, my sides don't really hurt, but I just feel like i'm being a complainer. My doctor did say it could be the stretching pains, but I just am scared that it will be something else. I mean I have had a singleton pregnancy before but that was 4 years ago, and I since this pregnancy is so different I don't want to take the chance of having something like small contractions and not going and getting something done about it.
I had excruciating pain in the area you describe starting at about 20 weeks. It felt like my guts were going to fall out and my pubic bone was going to split in half with all the pressure and pain I was experiencing. I went to my OB and she said it was PSD and recommended a maternity support belt, which has really helped. I would suggest trying it if you are miserable.

That low, stabbing pain you probably feel is round ligament pain. I a suffering right along with you. About all my OB can say is "Im sorry"

This but I think OP meant SPD. It's extremely painful. Order a support belt or go buy one from BRU. Hope you feel better.
