Hi all

I am 17 weeks pregnant with twins, this is my first pregnancy. I have started to notice really uncomfortable stretching feelings in my lower stomach to the point that needed a wee can be painful. I sneezed the other day and felt like Id tore a muscle. Im assuming this is normal??????

it is normal yes, even in single pregnancies this happens, although I imagine its worse with twins

Sounds like round ligament pain. All the stretching is normal - especially with 2 in there!! Maybe ask your mw about a support band.
