If it is just pressure and not pain it sounds ok, but still, you should be seeing a doctor at least monthly to monitor your baby's growth. Also the doctor can give you the correct vitamins which have folic acid and other things that will help your baby to prevent problems. There are very good books on the subject ,especially , my favorite was "What to expect when you are expecting" it is worth every penny!! Or get it at your library. It was a great help to me!!
