sore muscles above pubic bone - WHAT IS IT??

[Jas]

Hi,

Well for the last 4days I have had really sore muscles in the 2inch strip across the front of my body right above my pubic bone. (sorta the bit between the vagina and stomach which I suppose is technically stomach but I don't really class it as that) It feels like what stomach muscles feel like after doing a few hundred situps except it's not my stomach. I have also noticed the area is a lot harder and sticking out a bit more (DH noticed this too without me even mentioning anything about it being sore etc. Also it is sorer (sp?) when i sorta bent my body like if I'm laying down and go to get up

So I was wondering if anyone else has felt this same thing or knows what it's from (I thought maybe it was the uterus starting to come up out of my pelvis but I thought that didn't happen til 12weeks). I am either 7w3d today or 8w (I am having a scan on Tues but dr and I both think I'm 8w today). There is a small possibility I am having twins, would that mean the uterus would rise earlier seeing as it would get bigger sooner??

Any help or suggestions would be great as I really want to know what this pain is?
