Misstoyo: doesn't sound like you are having contractions. If it persists, call your nurse line to check anyway. Sorry to hear about your mom. Stay strong and good luck.
Could be round ligament pain especially if it is mostly confined to your sides. I would try to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water as well. Softy to hear about your mother, I lost cousin this morning to breast cancer. It's a stressful time, try to relax.
I am currently feeling the exact same wayI'm not sure what it is on a first time mom and I'm currently 33 weeks but my stomach is tightening up so badand I feel sick but no vomiting or anything it could also be stress too cause I am having problems with family as well
