Is it normal to have stomach pain in the late stages of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Every day it's like this, the time of the day is not set, and I haven't been to the hospital for a check-up.

Doctor's answer:

The most common cause of abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy is the stretching of uterine ligaments due to the expansion of the uterus after conception. Usually, this pain is not very severe and may cause some discomfort, but it does not affect daily life. The pain location is not fixed; sometimes it is in the lower left abdomen, and at other times it is in the lower right abdomen. The pain duration is very short.
After a medical examination confirms no other abnormalities, this type of abdominal pain typically does not require special treatment. However, if the pain is more severe, you can request medication from your doctor or further diagnosis to rule out issues such as miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, or ovarian tumors.
