Muscle stress

Aiyoh don't worry lah, muscle stress during pregnancy is actually quite common especially when your baby is growing, your abdominal muscles are stretching and working hard to support the weight, so that tightness or discomfort you're feeling is pretty normal at your stage! A few of us mums had the same thing and doc said just make sure you're not lifting heavy things, rest when you can, and wear a maternity support belt if it helps ease the pulling sensation. Since your doc already confirmed it's muscle stress during the scan, that's actually reassuring, but definitely mention to your doctor if the pain gets worse or you start spotting, okay? For now try warm compresses and gentle stretching, and honestly most of us found it settled down as we adjusted to pregnancy.
