Guest guest Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 Okay... I had Open Rny 7.5 months ago.. and I am currently 22 weeks pg. Baby Jonah has been kicking for weeks... and gaining in intensity as time goes by. I am SHORT... 5' and very Short waisted....ya know the type.. boobs sit on hips type. Well...Jonah is kicking several inches ABOVE the belly button..and feels right under my rib cage. That being said.. I am in so much discomfort and pain lately... Is it possible that my staples and stuff are all being squashed.. causing me this type of pinching, pulling pain in my upper belly? When I push on the top of my belly ... it HURTS... almost causing a tingly pain to my spine? I am freaking out.. as I am ONLY 22 weeks..... and will keep getting bigger... ARGH!

I have a similar pain, kinda feels like a plucked guitar string going UP my spine. I think it is part of the sciatica nerve being pressed on from the baby, not the staples. Mine has actually lessened a bit now that the baby has dropped.

ARGH! > You might find that it doesn't get THAT much worse... most babies grow up...until you're full that way...the begin to go out in front of you more...so while you're growing, baby doesn't actually end up all the way up into your throat....*wink* (just feels like it sometimes..heh.)
