1st TIME PREGNANCY and So Many Uncertainties-Just 2 Questions!?

I am 15 weeks pregnant and have the smallest baby bump ever, but love seeing it! When I layed down today on my back, I had this bulge under my belly button. When I pushed lightly on it, it hurt just a tiny bit but was pretty hard. It almost looked like a melon size tumor growing in my tummy. Is this normal?!!? It freaked me out!

Also, I have pain in my lower left ovary pretty much 5/7 days of the week. It feels like ovulation pain but never goes away. I talked to my Dr. about it and she said it could just be that part of the unterus stretching, but wanted to see if anyone else experiences this. I have had it for about 6 weeks, not terrible pain, just uncomfortable. I already had an ultrasound at 12 weeks and the baby was where it should be, so not thinking it could be the baby down there.

Alright ladies, any input on these 2 things would be great! Thanks soo much!

    Firstly...congratulations on your pregnancy. It is a wonderful time but full of worries, this is normal and the best advice I can give you is to relax and enjoy the growth of your baby.At this stage in the pregnancy as the uterus expands all the internal organs have to jostle for space and this is possibly what you are feeling or you could be slightly constipated. If the tenderness continues ask for another scan to rule out ectopic pregnancy (añthough this is highly unlikely)Good luck.

    Baby bump is normal. At 15 weeks the top of your uterus is just under your belly-button, And all people carry different. I blew up like a balloon and was completly round everywhere (I think I loooked like an Umpa-loompa), Some women carry very out in front just causing the basketball look.

    As for the pain, it could just be harmless stretching, or it could be an ovarian cyst. A cyst would be able to be seen on an ultrasound, so if they didn't mention you having one, chances are it's just your uuterus stretching, if it's still bothering you at your next appointment suggest an ultrasound be done to make sure you don't have a cyst (even though there's nothing they do for them anyway) I had one in early pregnancy, and it didn't bother me, I didn't even know it was there until they told me, and it went away on it's own. Hope this helped. Congrats and good luck! Happy New Year

    The bulge is probably the top of your uterus and the pain most likely is just stretching pains. It could be an ovarian cysts but those are quite painful so I don't think that's what it is.

    hey, my little boy is 4months old, i never experienced this in my pregnancy, but my brothers girlfriend is 23weeks pregnant now and she described the exact same pains to me as you are having. every pregnancy is differant, it could just be growing pains or the baby could be sitting on a nerve. best of luck with with your pregnancy x

    I do not believe that they might cover any matters from you, that might now not be proper in any respect, so I do not believe you must fear. I might name and ask what the appointment is for and inform them that you've one more appointment scheduled. I have no idea what the goodie bag would be, might be nutrients, samples, information approximately the sanatorium and pediatricians? But they must be competent handy you all that at a constant seek advice from. I might name however I might now not be concerned.
