Oh I totally know what you're talking about. This happened to me with baby #1 and #2! Sometimes you stand up and POW - groin pain. What's happening is the ligaments that run down your torso and channel through your crotch and down your legs are getting stretched out as you get bigger and sometimes they will spasm when they get a further stretch. It can be very painful and make you want to buckle over. The pains and show are definitely your body gearing up to deliver. Unfortunately, every woman's body has it's own timing and it might be gearing up over a whole week.















But don't worry, that baby is going to come out sometime, it can't stay in there forever!
