sore belly

I am a little over 31 weeks and my belly is sore a lot. I don't mean like a sour stomach but my stomach area is actually sore and hurts sometimes. Like it's about to bust open. I assume since I am carrying a heavier load this is normal. But I was just checking to see if anyone else has this going on?

 

i do!

 

I feel like I go through this soreness every few days. Almost like they go through a growth spurt and my body is adjusting, which is probably true. My belly will hurt if I stand for too long when I don't wear a maternity belt, and sometimes just the position that the babies are in, makes my belly hurt. Sometimes it feels like my belly button is going to just break.

Good luck.

 

yes I was very sore at the end. Those poor muscles were stretched beyond belief!

 

Yes!! I thought it felt like gas all over my uterus though.

 

Sorry everyone else is feeling this too but it's nice to know I'm not the only one. This is my fourth pregnancy in five years so I think my muscles are just shot.

 

Well crap, Im feeling this too, like my muscles are stretching too fast too soon, and very sore like the PP said every couple days.. kinda wierd but sounds like its common with us MOM's - we are tough cookies!! :aggressive:

 

I feel this too but last week after I had an U/S and was poked and prodded on my belly it was ESPECIALLY bad. Probably didnt help that I walked around the mall all day after that. I did invest in a meternity belt from macys which has actually helped with the tummy/back pains! I would definitely suggest getting one.

 

I loved my maternity belt. I was teaching school until 29 weeks and it was a life saver. I wore it everywhere except to bed. Also when you lay down I always propped my belly up with a pillow under it. that really helped me or th top side would ache from the weight pulling it down.+

 

I use my support belt like crazy and it helps alot but I do have one or two spots that are def sore to the touch 99% of the time. The doc just said that its probably bc Link(baby B) liked to push his butt out right there thru most of the pregnancy so far.
