Pelvic pressure and hardness

[Sarah_707]

Hi I'm in my 25th week (with my first) and lately I've started feeling this sudden pressure and hardness in my pelvis. It feels like this heaviness and only happens when I'm sitting. My appointment is due on Sep 24th so I'm feeling really anxious right now. Is this normal?

Yea mine used to if I sat still it was horrible  but I would ask your doctor any way as she will tell you for sure

Could be Braxton hicks. When I got them it gave me pressure and felt like my lungs where being squeezed as well.

[Sarah_707]

Yea I do feel like something's pressing on my lungs too

[Sarah_707]

Hmm. But it gets better when I get up or lie down

[lucie27]

Does your stomach go really tight when you start feeling pressure?

[Sarah_707]

My pelvis does, yes.
