Outlook

If you have been seen by your doctor and know that your pregnancy is not ectopic, not associated with bleeding, and not associated with uterine contractions, you are probably experiencing one of the more common discomforts of pregnancy.

• For most women, the pain will go away simply by changing daily activities.

• Except for rare cases, the pain may last throughout the entire second and third trimesters of your pregnancy.

• Once your child is delivered, the pain should completely go away.
