cramps

[melliejean]

Hi lady's. I'm almost 12 weeks and I've been having cramps and a lot of bloating on and off. This will be my first baby. Is this normal?

[bec_jobe94]

Its normal to have cramps because yoir uterus is growing.

Thanks all! They are not severe. I just was curious being a new mom:)

I get cramps here and there but it's nothing unbearable or anything and Ive been getting bloating definitely and I feel like today its worse and my stomach still looks really bloated and I stopped feeling the pressure. But I can't be showing because Im only 6 weeks and gonna be 7 weeks on Wednesday

I had tons of cramps and pains. I occasionally still do at 26 weeks. Doctor says as long as it's not severe or there's no blood it's probably normal.

I am 14 weeks and have been getting "cramps" for thr past couple weeks. They felt different from perios cramps and I later realized they are probably round ligament pains form stretching.

I experienced cramps around that time and a little brownish discharge. My doctor said that both were normal but certainly if the cramps are excessive and continuous then you should seek medical attention immediately. A few here and there probably not a concern, but still run it by your doctor. As for the bloating that too is normal. I found that I was very gassy a few weeks ago myself. Ginger tea really helped me a lot.
