Problems/pains as you have more babies?

[3Princessmom]

I seem to start getting pains in my lower abdomen and some contractions at about 25 weeks and on with my last two pregnancies (#3 & #4).

Have you had issues like this as you have more babies, and how do you tell if it's a normal weird pain or something to worry about????

Just wondering what your expierences are through your pregnancies as you have 3+ pregnancies.

My morning sickness has gotten worse each time. #1 was nothing at all, through to vomiting most mornings of 1st trimester with #4.

I have gotten more frequent ligament pain (that sharp pain in the lower abdomen) each time, and have also noticed Braxton Hicks contractions earlier and more frequent each time.

At the time, it's a real pain (no pun intended) but like labour pain, I find myself forgetting it rather quickly. So it's not enough to deter me

No, it hasn't gotten worse each time... For me, it's been #3, #6, and #9 that were harder/worse/strange/more uncomfortable.

In just "general" discomforts, it Totally depended on how close together the pregnancies were... The ones that were closer together were more uncomfortable~ probably because my body hadn't had as much time to heal (the post-partum period is Really a full 2 years...)

I've just had more weird unexplained pains in my lower abdomen this time around, but maybe it is because the pregnancies are closer than ever before - Baby #3 was only 14 months when I got pregnant! And I had a c-section last time, so the scar area is probably hurting more with the stretching. I jsut can't seem to figure out when it's a nothing pain, and when to worry.
