Round ligament pains?

in August 2016 Moms
Hey mamas! I just got my positive test yesterday, and it doesn't feel real quite yet! This is baby #2 for us, with a one and a half year old. I think I'm 5 weeks, as far as I know. I have like crampy pains (that feel like my period...had that early with my first), but then some sharp pains when I cough or move real quickly. I can't remember if round ligament pain starts this early! So, my question is this...is it too early to have round ligament pain? Thanks!

    I am just over 6 weeks and I have terrible RLP . I sneezed last night and was almost in tears. I don't remember it this early with my 1st either.

    I am the same way! I just found out I'm pregnant, and I am having pain when I move and cough, had no idea what was going on.

    I don't remember getting RLP with DD1 until later on.... however, that was one of my first clues when I was pregnant with #2! I started feeling them here and there around 3 weeks, before I even took my first HPT. I thought it was odd starting so early too, not sure if it is because our bodies are already used to having babies? I haven't had my 1st apt yet to ask the Dr.

    My daughter is 13 months old. I'm 5 + 6 pregnant and have wicked rlp. I called my midwife. Her dumbass nurse said it was too early for those. Hmmm. Definitely round ligament pain

    It gets earlier and more painful with each pregnancy. You body remembers what it is supposed to do and prepares for it faster.

    Yep! I'm def. having them too!! I wonder if they come on earlier as a STM because I don't remember them this early with my first.

    Glad y'all are in the same boat! I wondered if it was because our bodies have done this before...makes sense to me! Thanks ladies!

    Same thing here! It was the first indication that I was pregnant.

    So glad to have found this thread bc it's making me a nervous wreck. Having tiny twinges like cramps but only every so often and not really painful. I notice it more too when my bladder is full. I'm also thinking I didn't notice it when I was pregnant with my son bc I was working and super preoccupied vs now when I'm home and just thinking about pregnancy

    I get RLP bad and it starts early. Feels like someone is snapping a rubber band on my ute if I cough or sneeze. I'm only 5ish weeks.

    I thought this was what I was having, but it turns out I have 2 cysts. My doctor told me it was too early for RLP, and what I was feeling was pain from the cysts. Apparently, it is pretty common when you're pregnant to develop an ovarian cyst (your copus luteum can grow even more and develop into a cyst). I did fertility treatments where I released more than one egg and wound up with a corpus luteum cyst on each ovary.

    Ooh bummer! Do you have to do anything for them? Can you get these even if you didn't do fertility treatments?

    I actually didn't know what round ligament pain was until I googled "cramping in early pregnancy". So glad to find this thread too! I have been having slight cramps for the past week. I've been doing a lot of traveling so sitting for long periods of time hasn't helped. I notice it happens more at night for me as well.

    I just found out I'm pregnant, and I'm only in my 4th week. I had concerning twinges on my right side a couple of times today when I stood up from a chair, and now that I've looked up round ligament pain I think that's got to be it!

    @babayRFL They don't give you anything for them. We are just watching them with my ultrasounds and unless I develop extensive pain, they're nothing to be worried about. You can get them without fertility treatments, and he said it's fairly common to have one during early pregnancy. My mother-in-law and 2 of my co-workers had them during their pregnancies.
