the pain I have been experiencing has not been going away. yesterday it got a little bit worse, so we decided to go in around 9ish. They hooked me up to the belly band, checked my cervix and took my urine, but everything looked pretty normal, so they sent me home at 11 or so. It was pretty uneventful. it sucks I'm in pain, but there's "nothing wrong" ):

Each time they didn't find anything though. The pain was so bad when it first came I thought for sure I was in labor. The pain still comes and goes, but at this point I've come to terms I'm just going to have to live with it. As long as it doesn't get worse, and baby keeps kicking I'm just keeping my happy butt at home lol!

	Comment from tibby8 » Posted Aug. 31, 2012 6:11pm Same happened to me the same time in my pregnancy. They did an ultrasound of my kidneys because my pain was on my flank sides of my back. Turns out baby's pushing on my ureters causing a Barack up of urine and my kidneys are swollen. That's what was causing my pain. They gave me Vicodin in a small dose and drink lots of water and said I could use icy hot patches. The condition is called hydronephrosis. Itscommon in pregnancy and goes away after birth. Its also commonly mistaken for uti's in pregnancy too. That's what they thought I had too. Hope this info helps.
