presure in pregnancy at 17 weeks

[nessa128]

is it normal to have pressure so low down at 17 +3 weeks pregnant? i feel as though i'm at that awful end stage already lol.

there must be something about 17 weeks, because i had the pressure then as well and only lasted about a week.

Having the same issue and my doc keeps telling me its ligament pulling. It scares me sometimes because it feels like somebody is sitting on my pelvis....but then again I am pregnant with twins so that is probably making it worse and I am very small framed. It seems like I feel everything ten times over. If it gets worse just talk to your doc again and see what they say.Well, wishing you the best and take care and GOD BLESS!

That explains the pressure. Your ligaments aren't what they used to be therefore your uterus hangs lower in your abdomen.

Is this your first pregnancy or no? It can really depends on how your uterus is situated.
