usually the uterus expand normally, but the possibility of abnormal position of the baby increased with breech or other malpresentation, there is also possibility of preterm labour and placenta could be low lying.pain could be related to stretching of uterine ligaments,however,uterine wall should be checked to exclude fibrois which sometimes gives severe pain during pregnancy.check kidney by ultrasound,as sometimes fusion defects of the genital organs is associated with urinary tract abnormalities.
