First Tri symptom question

lrenae1647 · October 2008

I know I am extremely early in this pregnancy, but I'm having one main symptom that I didn't really have before and it kind of scares me-my stomache muscles feel bruised almost. When I cough, they hurt. When I sneeze, they hurt. If I stretch too far, they feel like they're pulling. I have cramping on and off throughout the day, every day.

Has anyone experienced this?? Is it normal??

that was one of my first symptoms that made me take a pg test.

Oh good! Thanks for responding...it's been making me very nervous. I feel almost like my tummy is injured and I have to baby it! It makes me feel better that someone else has experienced this too. Thanks!

My abs still feel sore sometimes even now, so I think it's normal. You may want to mention it to your doc the next time you go in and I'd bet that he/she will reassure you. Good luck to you!

I had lots of crampiness, and feeling "heavy" in that region...ask the MD for reassurance, but for me it was normal...
