So sick of having cramping, it is so scary

This lower cramping or aching feeling i have been having for a couple of weeks now low in my belly which goes in two day vagina it feels like is driving me crzy


DR said it prob normal stretching i have had no bleeding the feelings are not server and i believe i feel baby movement each day

but god this is annoying lol i cant even tell anymore if what i am feeling is cramping or aching i cant tell the difference anymore?

My 19 week scan is in two days and i know i should try and stay positive but its hard isnt it...


i dont know what the pain is im praying its normal but i just dont know yet .If i feel movement im guessing that it must be ok

being an expectant mummy is so hard xxxx so wonderful and so scary

i feel your pain (literally)... i am about 25-26 weeks and today had to go the maternity ward due to the same feeling, like period pain but very achy.... they hooked me up to the ctg and bubs was doing well, took blood pressure, opened me up and looked at cervix, took a swab and tested it for membranes etc, and finally felt the cervix.... at the end of all that, said it was probably pulled ligaments from stretching etc..... i never had this with the first pregnancy, and it does feel like really really really light contractions/period pain.... a bit disconcerting but what can you do, guess i have to just get used to it and try not to worry.... good luck with your scan.

Dont stress too bad hon. I had the same thing for the first 20 odd weeks too, then it went away for 10 wks and then my vajayjay started aching!
If you have movement and no blood/irregular discharge, try not to worry about it.
I am sure it will all be fine for you and good luck with your scan.

If its the very low down period type crampy feeling I had this constantly until about five days ago...it was doing my head in after five miscarriages!
For what its worth my obstetrician said it is normal for some women and usually indicates the uterus is sitting low in the pelvis and causing pressure down there....if this is the case, the uterus moves right up out of the pelvis somewhere between 19 and 22 weeks and gives relief......she was right, spot on 19 weeks the pain eased off and bubs has noticably moved up as my knickers fit better again now! I feel sooooo much better!!

That must have been hard Emma, very scary but im glad everything is ok

thanks guys i know im a worrier :)

yeah thats what its like low down achy crampy feeling i hope it is my uterus just laying low .

i dont know how we do this sometimes its so wonderful and so full on , a little life is in there , i keep talking to my tummy is telling the baby to stop giving mummy pains lol

I have been feeling a bit achy in the lower part of my tummy for the past 2 days also.
Wondered if it could be the start of BH cx?
Or maybe cause I have a really really sore back atm?
I have no idea, just wanted to say I think I'm in the same boat....

I posted about my scan in the thread 18-20 week scan :)

but i had it today and all looked great with bubs , all healthy no probs with anything , they didnt mention a thing bad so i still have no idea what the pain is, i will see my mid next week so will ask then but im clue less

I'm so pleased to see this thread and that your baby was born all safe and sound!
I am 14.5 weeks and experiencing low aches/trapped wind and a sore lower back! I've been sending myself crazy on google advice all day and have come to the conclusion to mention it when I see my OB on Friday, but not worry too much till then!

I've always had a bad back and trapped wind (sorry TMI) before the pregnancy and I'm asuming the aches and pains are stretching (had urine tested last week). I thought the 2nd trimester was meant to be the easy bit!!!

Excited for the moment I'm sleep deprived caring for my Bambini.
