Just want to make sure this is completely normal.

I posted a similar question last night but only got a couple of answers, and this pain is happening again today, so I'm just worried. 
It's like a very sharp pain in my stomach, not below my bellybutton, it is definitely my stomach hurting very badly, and it is nothing like a nauseating pain, it's horrible. It is also in the front of my stomach, not on the sides, like I've heard round ligament pain is, so. Could this just be round ligament pain? Is this normal, have any of you ladies had bad pain in your stomach around my gestational age and it not be preterm labor? That is like my number one fear. 

PS, I'm almost 19 weeks, will be on Friday.

I had that when I had my all-day puking episode when I was 19 weeks with my daughter. I seriously thought I had food poisoning. Did you eat something bad?

Not that I know off. I had it really bad last night and then it went away and I was fine, and it came back when I was grocery shopping today, and I'm still experiencing it. 
I'm fine with eating things, and I don't feel nauseated or sick, just in pain.

Herm.. call your OB! Better safe then sorry, y'know?

Sounds normal. pains are pains, pregnancy is FULL of them

You can call your OB to be safe, but if youre not having contractions and yore not bleeding, its most likely normal!

Good luck

I called the nurse and she said she's put my symptoms into the doctor and call me back, but it's been 30 minutes and the pains have increased a lot, and it'll go from kind of hurting to really hurting and then back. 

Should I just go to the ER? My doctor isn't calling me back

Thats so weird bc i had that a couple days ago. I was sitting at my desk at work n I felt like a horrible, sharp pain in my stomach that literally took my breath away. It was definetly in my stomach tho...but it did feel like it kind of went down into my abdomen...maybe that was just cuz I was in such intense pain or something...?? Idk. They lasted about 30-45 sec's n happened about 3 times, with the last one being less intense and shorter than the previous two, and I havent had them since. My sister in law thinks they were contractions...but y would I be having contractions in my stomach and not my "baby box"? Idk, I was really confused about it too...I still have no idea what the heck that was all about, but if it doesnt pass after an hr, maybe the ER wouldnt be such a bad idea??
