When you are maybe a month or two into your pregnancy and someone pushes on your tummy to see if they can feel the baby, is it supposed to hurt?

I've been having pains like when you're really hungry and also period-like pains. Are these normal? I'm asking because I think I'm pregnant and I'm awaiting the results.

Pregnancy tummy aches

It is pretty common to experience early pregnancy stomach aches. It comes from hormones and from the pressure of the growing baby. Because of that pressure that is causing your tummy ache, you don't want people pressing on your womb and causing even more pressure. One way to get relief for the ache is to lay down on your side in bed and let your muscles rest that are holding up your growing tummy. Also you might try rubbing some shea butter on your tummy because the muscles and skin are being pulled and stretched.

Tell them to stop that

Hi, don't let people push on your tummy. What are they thinking? Tell them to keep their hands off your womb and leave your tummy alone.
