Really bad abdominal pains in the morning?

Question

I am 29 weeks pregnant and when I wake up in the mornings I always have a really bad pain in my abdominal pelvic area....normally its because I have to go to the restroom really bad...like I have been holding it all night. But I don't wake up if I have to go in the middle of the night. But it worries me how bad the pain is...in fact this morning I couldn't even stand up all the way it hurt so bad. Is this a bad sign or am I just paranoid? What do I need to do??

Answer 1

If it is because you are holding it all night.....try setting an alarm to wake you up so you can go to the restroom one time during the night. Then see if it still hurts in the morning. If it does still hurt I would let your doctor know. Good luck!!

Answer 2

I am also 29 weeks and get the same thing in the middle of the night. Its usually my bodys way of telling me that I really have to go. It might be the same for you. You could always call your Dr just to make sure that everything is alright. I know that with certain positions that I sleep in I wake up in horrible pain. So it might also be that.
