Not sure if I am pregnant guess its too early to tell.... this will be my second pregnancy and I don't remember the left side pain before..... i have the nausea and tiredness.... i also have a fibroid that is fairly large.... i am wondering if this is all in my head.... has anyone gotten pregnant with a large fibroid on the outside of the uterus

Generally, if you don't have any spotting or fever associated with abdominal pain, it's just the ligaments and muscles stretching to accommodate the growing uterus. If you think about how fast the baby grown, it's no real surprise that it kinda hurts. As for hot baths, you can take a hot-ish bath, but keep your body temp below 100 or so. If your core temp. goes much above that for an extended period of time, it could potentially cause problems with the baby's development. I'm at week 15 and I abdominal pain almost all the way through the first trimester and now I get pain in my lower left side particularly, but still have pain on both sides from time to time. It's usually just part of being pregnant. Yippee.

I called my doctor about this very thing today. He says isolated to the lower left hand side is where your bowels are and this is most offen due to constipation. He said try a stool softner to get some relief.

I am 8 months pregnant and am having severe constant side pain for the past few hours. I've never felt this before, this is my first pregnancy. If anyone figures out what it is please post. I have a couple days before my next dr app and can't wait that long. Might make a visit to the hospital er if I don't figure out what it is, or it doesn't go away.
