Stretching pain?

I'm 5 weeks today & I have noticed every time I stretch there is a sharp pain in my lower left side, close to my pelvis. Should this be something to worry about or could it just be  growing pains?!?

They are growing pains.  It's your uterus starting to stretch.  It will happen all through pregnancy.  They call it round ligament pain.  I had it with DD around 5 weeks so bad I called the OB the next day.  I seriously felt like I tore something in there.  Everything was fine though.  I had it through that whole pregnancy.  Good luck.

I've been having those too, and I was told not to worry because it's just your body adjusting to having a baby inside of it! :)
