It started in the middle of the night about 5 days ago. I thought it was something I ate, I was up almost all night long…I NEVER thought that sleeping on the bathroom floor could feel so comfortable 
Anyway I didn’t have any problems the next day until the evening. Then the same the following evening. Well Sunday was completely different, it was all day long (on and off).
It carried on yesterday so I went to the Dr. They gave me some category B anti spasm pills and said (after having a listen to my tummy) that it was gas. Possibly IBS (which to my knowledge I have never had). They also said that this level of pain was not normal for most pregnancies.
You can imagine how I am feeling about pregnancy right now…if the next nine months are going to be about me writhing in agony on the floor…well lots of bad words!!
But seriously, the pains are killer, I feel like I am in Alien and some ‘thing’ is gong to split my tummy in half. It is comparable to kidney stone pain. The pills are not working and they have ruled out an ectopic pregnancy.
I know there are some of you who have been or are suffering with the same thing, is there anything, food wise, natural, chemical, anything that you can recommend that can help??
I should also add that I am a walker and also into the yoga, eat a non-junk food diet and lots of water (not a soda fan).
Thanks in advance for any help and light you may shed!!
Additionally, I was also told by the DOCTOR when I went on Monday that the gas would in no way harm the baby. Nor would the anti spasm drugs she prescribed me.
Thanks to those so far for the HELPFUL advice!
