very sore in left side today

[Lil_Vees]

Hi ladies,
I'm 9 weeks 2 days today and have had pretty mild symptoms so far. Some mild cramps, breast sensivity and fatigue only. Today I feel extremely sore on the left side of my lower midsection, where it's painful to move suddenly in several directions. Its kind of an extended version of the pressure I've felt when bearing down (like when peeing) since before I even had a positive test in week 4. Not cramping, just sore/tender. Anyone else experience anything like this?

Sounds like what i feel. I have a cyst in my right ovary, doctor said its normal this early& should shirk as the placenta takes over.

The pain was completely gone the next day and I never had any spotting, so I'm holding out for my apt on Friday when I'll be 10 weeks. Changing to a new doc since I was seeing a fertility specialist til now. Assuming/hoping it was just normal stretching soreness, very much looking forward to the ultrasound. Haven't had one since we saw heartbeat at just over 6 weeks!

I've started getting that too, being my third pregnancy, it's just my ligaments :-)

Thanks for the feedback, will check in tomorrow with doc. It's not really constant, kind of a dull ache now that has moved, but will check in just to be safe.

I had similar pains from the very beginning of my last pregnancy. While they could be round ligament pains (these come and go and are not constant), they could also be something more serious, like a hernia (tight and sharp pains in the abdomen - location varies) or an abruption (typically a constant pain in the upper right or left part of the abdomen). Talk with your doctor and let them know what you are feeling. Be careful not to put any undue strain on the area until you know exactly what you are dealing with.

I think it might be round ligament pain even though I'm still first trimester. I've had a lot of bloating and some distention already so that seems to make sense. It's not severe and seems to be easing up, especially after a warm shower which is good. If it persists tomorrow, I'll call my doctor. Thanks!
