is it normal to feel heaviness in the lower abdomen
Brief Answer:
It is mostly normal
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
It is mostly normal to feel heaviness by the end of pregnancy especially if there are no other symptoms like bleeding etc. Little bit heaviness is not to be worried about. Adequate rest for 2-3 days resolves such issues. Even if something went wrong, body has great capacity to heal quickly. So just rest and avoid heavy work.
Ultrasound and clinical examination by the gynecologist rules out any issues if present.
