1st trimester
Stabbing pain in my side.
Eline
Hi everyone, I'm 6 weeks pregnant with my first baby and have been feeling sharp pains in my side every day for the past week. I always sleep on my side, and that hurts quite a bit. Is this normal? Do you recognize this? Would you like to help me by giving an answer? I'm really struggling with it. Love, Eline

Eline, I also had some "stabs" at the beginning when I lay on my side. But I thought it was because my belly would hang to the left or right, so I slept with a pillow in my side for a while. Just to support your belly, you know.
I don't know where it comes from. Maybe the ligaments that are stretching.
Hope it helps you out. -

Hi Molly, thanks for the tip. I'll try it out tonight. And then I'll let you know if it helps me too. Greetings, Eline. -

Okay, it doesn't really feel comfortable though, so use a thin cushion. But it does help with the pain.
