My periods are 5 days late and since yesterday im getting this weird pain around my belly button. Havent tested yet, thoda nervous. Did anyone feel this before getting a positive?
I had this during both my pregnancies, especially in the later months. It's just your body making space for the little one. Nothing to worry about unless it's a sharp, constant pain.
Yes, my doctor explained that as the uterus grows, it pulls the abdominal wall and causes this belly button pain. It usually happens in the second or third trimester. It is quite common.
I know how scary every small pain can feel, I was always panicked. It is usually just the uterus stretching, but please check with your doctor if the pain is severe or sharp.
Oh god, I panicked so much when I felt this! I thought something was wrong inside, but actually it's just normal stretching. Try to rest and don't worry.
Yes, stretching causes this pain, but always mention it to your doctor during regular follow-ups. I had to monitor everything very closely due to my thyroid.
