A member asked:

My stomachs numb and im about 4 months pregnant. does that mean somethings wrong with the baby ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No.: This wouldn't be a sign of anything wrong with the baby. More than likely it's from the stretching of superficial nerves that supply the skin of your abdomen, which is a normal thing with pregancy. If it persists, mention it to your OB when you see them again.
