About 3 weeks ago, I started having stomach pain in the middle and upper middle quadrants of my stomach after napping during the day. I thought it was from eating right before napping, so I stopped that, yet it doesn't seem to help. The pain only happens when I nap during the day, never after waking up from sleeping at night. It doesn't always happen right after I wake up either. Yesterday, it started about 6.
Is it normal to wake up with stomach pain and back pain throughout the night I'm 27 weeks ...
He put me on Sucralfate twice a day which helped for about a week but now after waking in the morning the pain begins again and is lasting up to 8 hours with a fever. I am missing massive amounts of work and life in general because of this. I've lost 17 pounds in the past several weeks because I am afraid to eat. It doesn't help that my doctor doesn't seem to concerned about my pain.
I used to have body aches and pains, like you, I felt so tired after waking. My pain was all over. I was advised to get my Vit D levels checked, and they were very low. After Vit D3 supplementation, (takes time to get to normal you need your blood levels re checked). I felt better. So if you would find that you need Vit D, make sure you also take Magnesium up to 400 mg Required daily allowance, balance it with calcium rich foods like dairy, cereals, etc. A hot tub bath makes my aches go away.
I'm 28 weeks and 1 day and for the past few days I've been waking up in the morning and can barely get up because of a sharp pain in my lower stomach around my belt line. I don't know if it's braxton hick contractions or just sharp pains? I have a OBGYN appointment tomorrow, should I mention it?

I have been having the same problem every morning for the last few weeks. I get up in the morning, and the first deep breath I take is followed by a wheezing up the center of my chest (no sound, though). It happens once and that is it. I have been very worried about it.
At first the docs said she was quite constipated, as when examined her stomach was quite hard, she was put on different laxatives (because despite going back to the docs several times she was still experiencing bad stomach pains), often waking at nite. After a few weeks and several laxatives later (lactulose, suppositries, movicol) and stomach remedies ( senna, gaviscon) she is still experiencing pain.
One morning I woke up and it felt like a balloon had been blown up inside my stomach! Sometimes the pain is in the middle of my abdomen, then other times it is closer to my pelvis and feels more like menstrual cramps... Anyone else experience this?
A little background info:
I am 21 years old.
On birth control (I've never missed a pill and always take it on time, but could it be possible that it's pregnancy, even though I did get my period even after these problems started?
