Okay ill be 19 weeks tomorrow. For the past few days ive had really bad pain. I woke up the other night with a sharp pain under my ribs. The next night it moved down into my lower back. And now today im having pain near my uterus. I thought it was poop cramps but its not going away and has been lasting for about 3 hours now and feels like its getting worse. Im considering going to the er but dont want to go if its just poop cramps. Any suggestions?

No you should definitely go as soon as you can.
Every pain at every place you described is normal especially during your first trimester, my concern for you is when you said it has been over 3 hours and it seems to be getting worse, that is not normal. Please go see a professional. Best wishes!

Most certainly doesn't sound like poop cramps I've heard contractions described as pain in the back sometimes. Absolutely worth at least calling your doctor I'm almost 18 weeks and never experienced pains like that before. Idk what Braxton hicks contractions are like perhaps its those but I wouldn't risk not talking to a doc personally

It is better safe than sorry! I went to the dr the other day and mentioned cramps in my sides and she made sure I wasn't feeling anything by my ribs. Hope you feel better
