Pressure in the pelvic area
I had to undergo a cervical cerclage at 16 weeks because of incompetent cervix. Now I am 18 weeks pregnant. But still sometimes I feel a slight pressure in the pelvic are, which lasts for 1 minute or so. Is it because of the enlargement of the uterus or is it bcos my child. I am now a days taking progesterone injection ones a week also. Sometimes the pressure is felt in the renal area or on the sides of legs. Hope this is normal.
