[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]JinDC, pumpkin one more time - sorry for bombing you with links but as I said, I'm home sick and have a lot of time on my hands today. Reading you say that it is happening after walking is DEFINITELY making me think this is round ligament pain, though it really still could be anything; gas pains, digestive issues, colon spasms. I would try some gentle stretching when it hurts. I agree with PP that it's so high up that it is really unlikely to be your uterus. Also, if you're going to have an obvious miscarriage, I think most of the time the spotting and bleeding starts BEFORE any cramping, and most people describe the cramps as very obviously in the reproductive area. Your uterus is still low, either just below or maybe just starting to peak out from behind your pelvic bone. Things shift around. Plus, parts that used to get a lot of oxygen don't anymore - so you really could actually just be getting a stitch / runner's cramp exactly. Especially if that's exactly what it feels like. It seems like you might have some high anxiety until you get to see baby and know that all is well, though. If you can't shake the feeling that something is wrong, could you call your midwife back and plead your case for an u/s or at least a doppler / heartbeat? At this point, you should be able to hear the heartbeat with a doppler. anyway, I don't want to downplay your fears, because obviously none of us know for sure what you're experiencing, but I just want to stress that these kinds of pains are very common in pregnancy.
