A doctor has provided 1 answer

Round Ligament Pain: You may be experiencing stretching of the round ligament which runs from the inside of your abdomen/pelvis through your lower belly into your groin region. As your baby grows, this ligament stretches and this can cause pain in your lower abdomen/pelvis/groin later on in your pregnancy. Tylenol (acetaminophen) is a good pain reliever that is usually safe in pregnancy. Check with your obstetrician!
