Waking through the night with pain around my ovary area

Hello,

Only in the last week have I been having trouble getting comfy for sleep. A couple of times and particularly last night I have woken with really bad pain in my right ovary area.

I have had this with my other pregnancies but this time the pain is really bad. The only way to relieve it is to get up and walk the pain out or roll over to my left side and get curl my legs up as much as possible.

I find this happens when I have been sleeping on my back for an extended period of time (not that I aim to do this, it just happens).

Do you think it is the weight of bub on my ovaries or bowel?

Ouch, that sounds really painful :hug:.

I have no idea what could cause it, it could be your bub's weight like you said. It might be worth asking at your next OB or hospital visit. I hope it eases a bit for you!

My SIL gets this and she uses a wheat bag warmed up to get rid of the pain.
