Mine is lower abdominal on right side. I also have a ton of Braxton hicks contractions, and I don't have any semi hard sex, cause my uterus will tense up for ten minutes... I've had six children, the reason I got my tt was my twins. I had 8lb twins. They stretched me out. One baby isn't bad.

I had a tummy tuck 4 years ago. My tummy was so tight. Didn't think I would be having more kids, had my tt after my 6th child. I've had twins, placenta previa, c-section, vback and now great having a Nother. Yes apparently I'm gluttonous for punishment. This has been the skinnist pregnancy, gained only a few pounds. No stretch Marks, and I'm now 26 weeks n going threw Hell. The Drs in this hillbilly town won't take me cause they say they have to many January births. So I'm stuck going to E.R every four weeks. I'm having a lot of problems with my pregnancy. I know, I've had 5 pregnancy's, this being 6. Skin may be stretchy, but mucles not so much. I have major pelvic mucle area pain , left or right. He's low in my cervix, giving me lightning. I can't walk long distance, cause it hurts to much. Im a dancer, so I get exercise, but its getting hard. I have tons of Braxton hicks, and today he was hitting me hard, I was in bath and mucus plug is coming out in peices. Called E.R and there like its probably just discharge... I'm like Hell no its not discharge. I know what discharge is, this is white grey chunky snot. They were like well if your worried then come in. I told them I would wait. I have to go tomorrow anyways, its been four weeks since I've been there. Need to do strep b test, and ultrasound to make sure I'm not plecenta previa again. Also figure out why I'm loosing mucus plug, I shouldn't be. I'm not even having sex. I can't even remember the last time we did. Also a day and a half ago I noticed I was wetter down there. I was cooking and some liquid ran down my leg. I've been as dry as a bone. So it caught me by surprise, so I shut dinner off, went to bathroom and cleansed, thinking maybe I was just a little thick with some discharge. But it was a bit waterey. So tonight I feel exhausted,but iI keep getting bad lightning, and Braxton hicks contractions a lot..... All this pain and bull, never experienced in my life....

I had a tummy tuck in 2010 after having my three children and family was complete.

This year I fell pregnant in February and gave birth in October at 38 weeks.

During the second trimester and third I experienced pain on my side from where my stomach was stretching. By flipping over on the opposite side and lying with my knees up seem to help.

I also noticed that my bump measured smaller than it did with the other pregnancies by 2cm every week. Finally the pain in labour was far greater and I could feel the pain right across the tummy tuck stitch line. I am 5 days post delivery and that area is still sensitive to touch. The plus side is my stomach is a lot smaller post delivery compared with all the other births so I am pretty confident about regaining my figure. I am currently trying to persuade husband to have vasectomy now as I have both 2 boys and 2 girls

Hi I'm really happy I read your post, because I'm almost 20 weeks pregnant with twins. I had a tt 5 yrs ago so I'm extremely worried. Could you please share some of your experience with me thanks?. How many weeks were you when you had the babies? Did you feel very tired?

Yes. I am currently pregnant with child 3. Premature birth wasn't a concern. You will not show for quite quite a while, expect your low back to get chubby before anything else does. It is uncomfortable - With the baby not being being able to push out normally, they'll push up into your ribs and organs more than the average pregnancy. Your stomach will snap back so fast, trust me. Worth it big time. I wouldn't change a thing either.

I am 21 weeks pregnant after having a Tummy Tuck in March of 2014 so its been a year later. I am a lot smaller than my other pregnancies (3) and the baby is sitting higher up. I am beginning to experience abdominal discomfort especially towards the end of the day or if I eat big portions or shortness of breath. The dicomfort kind of feels like i seriously over ate to the point where i cant even sit down. I hope this is temporary only as i dont think i can deal with it getting worse. Maybe its the muscles sstretching. I will stay tuned and keep udating. I have gained 12 lbs thus far. No stretch marks yet, i am using almond butter.

I am in the same situation, I had my tummy tuck 7 weeks ago and I am 3 weeks pregnant. I have 5 kids, I'm a chef,opening a restuarant in July. Just opened a tattoo a week ago. I just found out 2 days ago. Confused don't know what to do. My husband said its not the right time. But I know how rare it is to get pregnant and I feel if it happens it's time.

Hello. I am worried that I will be in the same position as you. I am scheduled to have surgery tomorrow and my boyfriend and I decided to have one last rendezvous last night. Well needless to say he didnt pull out. I checked my period calendar and I am ovulating today. There is a possibility that I may end up pregnant and recovering from a tummy tuck. I am so nervous but dont want to cancel either. What has happened to you since your post. Anyway advice will help. Thanks!

Did you end up hearing your baby full-term? I am only at 19 weeks pregnant and had a tummy tuck four years ago. I have been in severe pain for the last five weeks and do not know how I'm going to make it to term. Did you hurt the entire time? My doctors keep saying the pain will eventually stop and my muscles will stretch out
