    I really doubt that it is the baby kicking that is making you feel like that but more likely it is a nerve being pinched - a kick is just that - a kick and the pain from it is fleeting, it doesn't hang around in my experience of it. It could also be your joints starting to relax and not the cervix at all.

    at 15w it's unlikely to be kicking causing that much pain, he baby is still small and has plenty room to wriggle. By the time you're 35w though ... look out

    I'd say it's probably a nerve too.
    Hope it settles soon....Just in time for the real cervical punches & rib kicks probably, lol.

    Don't be embarrassed to ask your Dr, you need to feel comfortable with him/her so you can tell them everything that's going on throughout your pregnancy and they can make sure everything's fine with the baby. It's going to get a lot more awkward than this, lol

    Is it like a shooting pain? I used to get a shooting pain from around my belly button right down into my groin. I think it was a nerve being pinched but OUCH!! Hurts huh? Hope it goes away!

    Feels like im being stabbed up my who ha! I say to DP "down there" hurts and he looks at me weird its only for a short time then it goes away. Could be a pinched nerve but never experienced it and its quite uncomfortable.

    Yep, knife up the hoo haar. My GF also used to cop it too - we didn't look very pregnant then and people looked at us both very strangely when we kept jumping up and down at a cafe once....

    I always though that the baby kicking my cervix could be likened to biting alfoil with a filling. It was a sharp sort of zingy pain and always made me cringe.
    I wouldn't think that your bub would be big enough to cause any real pain to your cervix yet. I think you should mention it to your doctor... that is what they are there for.
