I am 18 weeks pregnant and this morning I had a kind of electric shock at the level of my navel. It happened to me twice in 5 hours. Is it dangerous?

Question

Is this normal? I have not had any fluid loss Hello! thank you for the reply. Indeed I have always done a lot of running and I have always eaten well so I have a good fitness. Could this be it then? I'm on my first pregnancy too .

Hello Ma'am, It happens in some women, among others who are very fit and in their first pregnancy. It's thought that it could be from the gap that widens between the two abdominal rectus abdominis because of the growing belly. Do you think this could be your case? Yes, that could be it. It's called diastasis too. I encourage you to discuss this with the doctor who does your pregnancy follow-ups at your next appointment if you have no vaginal fluid loss at this time.
