9 Weeks

Today was not one of my scheduled visits, but Thursday I began having a tugging sensation on my lower right abdomen, by Saturday it became quite uncomfortable and I found it hard to sleep. This tugging feeling became a sharp pain and by Sunday night I was feeling nervous. I never wanted to be a pregnant woman who calls her doctor for every little problem, but sometimes peace of mind is better than pride. I emailed her and she said everything sounds normal but to come in to make sure. It turns out my uterus is tilted to the right which was putting pressure on the ligaments. Unfortunately there isn't much to be done about this, but from now on, this habitual back sleeper will start sleeping on her left side earlier than expected! At least I was able to see the baby move it's head and arms!!
