Sharp, painful cramping?

kjgalarza

Anyone else having really sharp painful cramping with no bleeding? Is this normal? I've been having really painful period-like cramps on and off for the past few days in my ovaries and lower back. I always had pretty severe period cramps so I'm not sure if that passed on to pregnancy too.

Yup totally normal. Everything is stretching and baby is getting cozy sit back and try to relax

I've been super crampy, especially at night. More crampy than my typical period pains even. Just part of the process.

I have this too. This is my third and I never had this feeling until the baby was large enough to stretch. Ugh so painful!

I have it too. Always worse at night when I relax. Drives me nuts though. Woke me up at night initially too. I just keep reminding myself it's a good sign!

Thanks for the assurance, ladies! I was kinda nervous because it was so sharp. But I suppose it's all evidence that my baby and my body are working hard!

Im actually at the doctors office right now waiting to be seen because of the cramping. Will let you know what she says? I have been super worried. Its gone now but for about 15 minutes it was really bad and super sharp!

Doctor said not to worry it could be colic if you havent been to the toilet and it could be a hundred other things. She said take one day at a time and everything is okay

Thanks girl! I went to the doctors today just for a checkup and she told me it was all normal. Even a little spotting is normal. Just to take it easy and try not to do anything that causes or stimulates cramping.
