Painful low kicking

[dingdong]

Hello. I'm nearly 30 weeks with a boy. For the last 2 weeks I've felt this very weird pain low down that I'm guessing is just kicking. But it's a sharp pain, not like all the other cute kicks I've experienced. It feels almost like a short sharp vibration. My grasp on biology is terrible so I'm not sure what part he's pummelling. But it's probably near my bladder as I sometimes feel like I'm about to lose control! I like to think I'm pretty good at handling pain but this really catches me to the point where I squeal. Is it normal?? Thanks everyone...

Hi Dingdong
It is probably tour baby pressing on one of your nerves. This is a very common complaint during pregnancy. Try giving your baby a bit of a poke in the hope of persuading him to move from that position

HI Dingdong,

I got the same sensation. I am 34 weeks now and it went away after awhile but now I have the joy of my little man headbutting my cervix lol!! But it is easier to deal with than that awful pain you are feeling now.

Thanks both of you. Been much easier over Christmas actually. Maybe because I'm being lazy and taking it easy over the break. Ta for your advice... and happy New Year!
