Stretching/Pulling Sensations?

Hi Guys,
So I am almost 9 weeks, and in last few days I've noticed more and more "pulling/streching" sensations in my lower abdomen area.

This sounds very similar to what I had around that time. The muscles in your abdomen do stretch in order to accomodate the new baby, even early on. I felt it a lot on the sides of my abdomen just above my groin. Almost felt like a side ache kind of pain. I have also felt a pressure sensation this entire pregnancy in my lower abdomen. I think what you are feeling is completely normal. If it isn't menstrual like cramping, I wouldn't worry. Your baby is probably just growing :)

Oh I had soooo many tugs and pulls and cramps-- usually the worst when I stood up or sat down.
You're absolutely right-- your little bean is getting all cozy and setting up house for the next 31 weeks!!!
Kristen,
Most definitely normal.
