    As long as they're not painful, yes I've had them since about that time.

    Not painful just annoying although I do have a lower back ache to go with it and if I keep going and don't rest the front starts aching too I remember it with ds but not till much later

    Yep I had them from around 15 weeks, I first noticed when I was in hospital because of breathing problems that I could feel (and see) my stomach tightening. So perhaps could have even been earlier than that?

    Wikipedia says they can start as early as 6 weeks but are not usually felt until well into the second or third trimester..

    Of course we know that wikipedia is the pinacle of accurate information and should be taken as gospel.

    I've had them from 19 weeks every day at least 4 times a day! I was shocked at first now I am used to it.
