I'm 5wk 4 days pregnant tonight iv been experiencing some stretching pressure type achy feeling from my belly button to the centre of my pubic bone it's not painful feels odd????
Also about half hour after that iv got shooting pains up my cervix like electric jolts intermittent they are but really take me by surprise. I don't recall this ever happening before ever with any of my previous pregnancies or my daughter.
If someone could enlighten me I would be greatful.
thanks
Cat

Hey, I had that feeling from my belly button early on both times I was pregnant. I know my story might not give you much hope but I’ve had friends that had similar feelings and have healthy babies. Hope your doing okay xx
Hiya I had both these things early on and am now 22wks pregnant. I totally forgot about them til you said! I wouldn't worry, it's probably just your uterus preparing to grow xxx
Hi hun, I think the stretching sensation. I've also had a shooting pain type sentaion but it lasted a minute or so and stopped. I'm not sure what it means but when I googled it, I found many women who had felt the same thing and were doing okay.
If unsure please ask your doctor but it does sound normal Hun xx
I've had the shooting sensations before 'lightening crotch' it feels so weird. I think its related to uterus growing and pressing on nerves etc. I believe they get more common the further into the pregnancy you get x
Hey hun, I hope you're feeling better! I can't be of much help but I think the shooting pains are what they call "lightning crotch". I think it's quite normal so try not to worry. 🤗 xx
Honestly that name sounds perfect for what I felt iv tried to stay away from Google that's why I asked the ladies on here I'm ok now thanks iv got my scan tomorrow so we'll see what happens. Hope your ok xx
Bet you are. I couldn't wait with my daughter once I hit 16 weeks I needed to know haha. You've done well to not find out xx
Cat, I had the same.. So happy all is progressing so well for you, and yes, I had a fair bit of pain everywhere and put it down to general stretching aggravated greatly by the endo adhesions. xxx
Buy it in bulk from intralabs good price it's the best way to get it in your system. I really wouldn't be without it. It took about a month to feel difference energy wise but it's great, plus a lot of us are deficient in it aswel xx
Its funny, I forgot how important magnesium is. I used to have nerve pain on face, and took liquid magnesium and it helped over time. Also when I make my own nut milks (walnut) it helps, as they are very rich in magnesium.
I gotta get my life in order and start thinking about actively doing things to make me feel better. Sick of pain and exhaustion xx
Yes your spot on. I bathe in magnesium every day or at least every other day and the nuts I have for lunch with orange juice all nuts it's helped loads xx
