Pains

[Weelisa]

Hi I'm around 5-6 weeks pregnant and have been getting small sharp pains in my right side is this normal thanks

Hi
There are many things right side pains can be especially during pregnancy. Before I got pregnant i had many right side pains due to kidney stones and IBS. Many women can be more susceptible to getting kidney stones when they are pregnant. And although you might not have IBS, pregnancy trends to slow things down in your colon and can make it a little more painful than normal to have bowl movements pass through your colon. I would talk to your doctor and let him know what all you're symptoms are. Don't suffer through pain if you don't have to!

I feel very nausea now. Im 6weeks pregnant  cant sleep on stomach or chest nd my cravings are non existant. Lol I think im having a stubborn July baby

Hi :D I've had two pregnancies, both have been in the past year and a half, and I just wanted to say that I think abdominal pains are very normal in early and sometimes late pregnancy. But very common in early days. I had them very frequently during both of my pregnancies in the first term. I hope this makes you feel better.

Hi. Glad to read your post! I am 5 weeks and getting stomach cramps and lower back pain. Have been since day one of missed period though so am hoping it is normal. I have a 9 year old and cannot remember all these twinges! From what I have read on here it seems pretty common.
Best Wishes to you and your bump! x

Hi!
I'm not sure how this didn't show up in my folder until now, my apologies!
I hope you have been doing well!  If you were my patient, I would advise you that as you get further along, often the pains change in character.  Usually as long as long as they are not severe and there is  not any bleeding associated, they are probably normal.  It never hurts to call your doctor's office and ask questions though!
Good luck!
Dr B

im 10 weeks pregnant now, when i was 5-6 weeks i had pains exactly the same so had a early scan it turned out to be a cyst that the egg came from and is normal as will shrink n should dissapear by 12th week as thats where baby gets its nutrients until placenta is completely formed! hope this helped :-)

I'm now in my 14th week and I had experienced the same pains from weeks 4 to 12. I asked my midwife about it and she said to stay hydrated, as dehydration can cause cramping. It can also be caused by the stretching uterus and the shift of your organs getting adjusted to pregnancy. Typically, as long as there is no fever, or blood, or other accompanying symptoms, then you should be fine.

Thanks y'all i was just wondering this i am only 5 weeks preg so i wad staying to get nervous that my home preg test was not accurate and i was about to get my period

[angelsar]

I'm 5 weeks and 2 days pregnant. I have had the period like cramps and am now experiencing a tightness in my womb area. This worries me silly as im 42 this week and its my first pregnancy. My friends (and books/internet) say this is perfectly normal, its just my uterus preparing for baby. Good luck to you all.

[sopheng]

Probably ligament pain...body stretching to start preparing for baby's growth etc

[Weelisa]

Thanks everyone I think it is stretching this is my second child but there is a 10year gap so it's hard to try an remember back to my first pregnancy. Good luck to u all and congrats x
