What Causes Upper Stomach Pain During Third Trimester?
I'm 38 weeks pregnant and have been having pain in my upper stomach, mostly on the right side. I've had it for about 7 hours now. Sometimes it gets worse, but always a dull pain. I've tried lying down on both sides, sitting walking and nothing seems to help.
Hi, it seems that this pain might be due to constipation or acid reflux common at this stage of pregnancy. take plenty of water and mild laxative after consulting your Obst. There is one possibility of having starting of labor pain as well. Consult Obst. and get examined. Ok and take care.
