What is the reason for a slight pain in the lower abdomen at four months of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Female, 30 years old, has been feeling lower back pain and a heavy pain in the abdomen these past few days, but it's not too severe, occurring about two or three times a day. Unsure what this could be. Please ask: what could cause a slight lower abdominal pain at four months of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Hello. Based on the situation you mentioned, it is likely just an intestinal issue. Usually, if this situation reoccurs, it is not a major problem, as long as everything else with the baby is normal. I suggest you have regular follow-up ultrasound examinations at the hospital. If necessary, I recommend you follow a light diet and eat more high-protein foods, avoiding spicy and irritating foods.
