Cramping

Did anyone else have cramping in their 5th week? I'm cramping kind of like a menstrual cramp, but no bleeding. I'm just worried because I miscarried back at the end of June.

I'm 7 weeks tomorrow and have an eps scheduled. I'm nervous as I've miscarried early 3 times this year. My cramping is constant and my back is sore. I have everything crossed for tomorrow. Wishing you luck xx

Yes, I got mild cramping all the time, no bleeding. I asked my midwife about and was told it was normal. I'm 33 weeks and am starting to have the crampy feeling everyday. If you are worried, check with your dr to ease any concerns :)

It may be the round ligament pain.....you uterus is stretching to accommodate your baby. I had it in the first trimester and also having it now during the third. I'm 32weeks now. So if there is no sorting or bleeding you should not worry. Just be careful that you are not lifting heavy things or doing stressful job.

I had the same thing but lasted through out my 1st trimester and I was so worried as I too had a miscarriage but I now am almost 15 weeks and every thing is good.   I was told mild cramping is normal as the uterus is expanding, if the cramping gets worse or you start bleeding then get to a dr.

I did. I was worried about it as well, I had cramping on and off until 10th week along with backache. Hot water bottle and sitting with my feet up helped. Now nearly 18 weeks so was nothing for me to worry about. Keep an eye on it though and if you feel its getting worsr or you have spotting get to a doctor. Good luck :)
