It is common to have some aching in the adominal region whilst pregnant however sometimes you need to be aware of what are 'good' aches and which ones need further attention.

Possible causes of adominal aches during pregnancy include:

Baby's size!

Common/Mild Cases

Muscles stretch to accommodate the
womb, and ligaments become loose.

In Severe Cases this does not usually become a serious problem.

Treatment

Aches may improve if you change position, or lie down; swimming can help by taking the weight of the womb off the rest of your body
