and i dont mean in a braxton hicks kind of way. when I am sitting particularly, my belly feels so tight its like the skin is going to tear, especially higher up near my ribcage. Its not really muscular at all, more the skin itself. Its ok if I dont eat or drink, but hey how long can I not eat or drink for?
Lying down is fine, and standing is somewhat better.
Oh an I am a lot smaller at this stage of pg than I was with DS.
Any ideas?
I used to get this feeling sometimes in a spot in the middle up the top. No idea why though!! It's weird and uncomfortable.
I think I had something similar earlier in my pregnancy. Up high on my left side the skin on my belly was so tight it felt it might split open - ouch! It would hurt if I moved suddenly, and when I coughed or sneezed... it wasn't fun. After awhile it went away though... Maybe it just was that my skin was really tight and needed time to stretch?
Hope that helps :)
