Is It Normal To Have Bearable Abdominal Pain During Pregnancy?

I am pregnant now and currently running 4th month. I am getting little pain at my lower abdomen which is bearable. And this will come sometimes right side, sometimes left side. when i read in the internet, its mentioned the baby is trying to accommodate space hence the pain will come. May I know will there be any other complications may occur?

Hello,
Welcome to HCM
I understand your concerns.The pain you are experiencing may be due to Braxton Hicks contractions which will be felt by some pregnant women.
These contractions are common after 4 th month of pregnancy.


So,no need to worry.Be calm and relaxed.If the pain becomes severe and uterus is contracting and hardening at a faster rate,then you need to see your gynecologist sooner.

Wishing you a safe pregnancy.
Thank you
