    Is it inside? Sort of like a shooting pain?? Could be bubs on a nerve.

    that could be it Heaven, it is on the inside, but doesn't feel like it's in my uterus IYKWIM, just happens suddenly and i haven't been moving when it's happened, just standing or sitting still.
    it's very true Lozzy, you feel all sorts of weird stuff, even tho i've done this before each time is different!
    The feeling doesn't make me feel worried, so i hope my intuition would kick in if it was serious! just wondered what it could be as i haven't felt it before
    Thanks

    SOunds like round ligament pain. Nasty! Mine hurt like hell! It's just your tummy moving and stretching.

    It is the stretching of the internal remains of the umbilical cord. We have a couple of veins and nerves in both sides that go from the umbilicus to the sides and from the umbilicus to the pelvic. Because every thing is stretching in our belly they have to stretch too.

    As a rule of thumb pain that is like a electricity is nerve related, pain that is like a burning or hot sensation is ligament. Both quite normal during pregnancy.

    I hope it helps

    Totally normal and it's uncomfortable and irritating when it happens. I have had it now with all 4 of my pregnancies. Hope it eases for you soon hon.

    Thanks all
    would describe it as electricity Paris, maybe a nerve then?
    it's only been occasionally, thankfully
