im in the 6th month of pregnancy and experience very bad catch/cramps in the groin region wenever i get up from a sitting position lasts for about 10-15 mins before i can straighten up and walk straight is that normal and wat shud i do to prevent them.
Hi, I understand your concern.  The cramps/catch in groin while walking/ straightening up . Is mostly due to pressure on nerves in groin by growing fetus . This in turn leads to muscle pull causing the symptom.  This usually disappears when the baby grows. & occupies abdominal cavity. To return as baby head is fixed in pelvis in 9th month.  Avoid sudden change in posture, Take vitamin B12 supplements - Mild yoga exercises done under expert guidance would help (by making body more stretchable & flexible) Thanks.
