are these cramps normal?

I've been having some cramping, but it mostly seems to happen right before I have a BM (sorry, TMI). I've always had a sensitive tummy in this way, so it's not something new, just new with the pain. It's not unbearable, just odd. It's only happened a few times. Anyone else having something like this? Should I call my midwife or just report these symptoms at our 8-week appointment?

Re: are these cramps normal?

  • can you tell where they are coming from?  if it is before a BM, my guess would be that they are intestinal cramps and nothing to worry about.

  • I get some cramping before BMs too.  I'm no expert, but I'm not worried about that feeling.
  • I get mildish (it's a word now) craps before I go to the restroom (both #1 and #2) I wouldn't worry too much, remember you can always call the doc and leave a message if your scared something isn't right.

  • I've noticed some random cramps when my bladder gets really full. I'm just keeping an eye on it, but I'm not worried right now.
  • I get some kind of cramp when I have a BM coming up. Do your cramps go away after the BM? I always just figure there's a lot of pressure going on down there and the bm is causing the discomfort.

  • Yes, they usually go away right after. So yeah, I'm sure it's just pressure. But ugh ... it sucks!
