Thank you for this video! My wife is pregnant this will be my first child, her third, I'm 38 she's 40, and we're both so nervous and afraid due to our ages. It's our miracle baby. And this child means the world to us. I'm going to show her this video and remind her that her pregnancies when she was in her 20s won't be identical to this one, and reassure her that she and our baby will be ok. Thank you so much! Wish us luck everyone!

Thank you for easing my mind 😭 1st time pregnancy at 23 weeks and I’ve been concerned all day. Coughing from a bad cold made mine way worse

[JonesSimone]

This is my second pregnancy, but the first time I'm experiencing this pain. You learn something new every day

[arose]

I had my 8th child just 5 days ago and this pregnancy was the first time I experienced those pains.
Good luck to all you expecting Mama's! May God bless you and your precious baby!

I AM SO HAPPY I FOUND YOU! I'm pregnant with my first baby (Due in May) and I am a bundle of nerves about absolutely everything. Every video I watch I feel one step closer to becoming confident in not only birthing this child, but becoming the best mom! Thank you!

First time mom here 23 weeks I got that pain on my right side. It was really painful I was freaking out & scare didn’t know what to do. I just got up from bed & I stayed sitting down & I just breathe. It was working but the pain was still there. I can say it lasted about 10 to 15 minutes. The worst 10 15 of my of my life I was crying as well a lot of things were going thru my head. My biggest worrier was my baby thinking something could be going bad with him even thought of going to emergency but I had read about that pain but still. I hope with the time they get better. Thanks for this video I’ll try those tips you gave out. My due day is May 1st hope everything goes well with me & with all other mommies excepting god bless y’all & babies healthy babies. Amen 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

So glad I found your channel! I am currently 35 weeks pregnant with my first baby. I was in a constant state of worry as I’ll be giving birth in a few short weeks, but your videos are so educational, they help so much. I feel a lot more prepared, and confident.

[nandistaton]

I’m 5 months with my first baby and I’m such a nervous wreck. Thank you for your videos. 🙏🏽😩❤️

[charlieschasingme]

Thank you for saying "talk to your doctor OR Midwife!" I hate it when people just say, talk to your doctor as doctors are not the only primary care providers for pregnant women. Great video. :)

[wiseminkx]

This is my second pregnancy and never experienced this in with my first pregnancy. So this is really helpful I do have a midwife but I wasn't experiencing this when I visited her. I am now 17 weeks pregnant so this again thank you. I feel more reliefed.

[marycruzgarciavaldez]

Although this is super uncomfortable, it eases my anxiety to watch this video and read these comments ❤️

[Britts.and.Pieces]

This is my 4th pregnancy and my first time experiencing that pain! It’s a sharp pain but I was scared I hurt the baby because I was deep cleaning all day without rest. 🥺🙏🏻 I’m very happy it’s normal

[vivlazo]

I’m 32 weeks this week, and 2 weeks ago my little nugget tried to bust out! I thought it was round ligament at first, but it started to form a pattern— next thing I’m in the hospital, and my Dr said I was 1 cm dilated! Luckily the contractions had stopped and baby is doing great. But, you are totally right. Sometimes it could be something else. Love your videos and I’m so happy I found your channel!

[venessakamau]

Your God sent. Am so happy I found this video. This is my first pregnancy and am 20weeks gone and trust me the sharp pains have been a major concern to me. I thought that maybe something was wrong with me or the baby. Thank you for this video. It's very helpful

[ashserj]

I'm 21 weeks pregnant and today I experienced this pain while working on my laptop. It helped when I rubbed the area and after doing a bit of cat cow stretches. But this worried me thinking something was happening to my baby. Thank you for the knowledge. Feel much at ease.

[korrinkirk]

I feel so much better about the pains I have been getting now, I was so scared what it could be. It is so intense when it happens 😭

[Uhuru-academy.africa]

Thankful to find this, I was really worried this morning with sharp pains in the groin/ uterus area. My first two pregnancy I didn’t have it. This is my third pregnancy and I’m on my first week of second trimester.

[adeniranyetunde]

I've been battling with this pain lately, @ 24weeks I was scared and really concerned. Thank you for this insight, it's really helpful.
