Cramps underneath my bellybutton area

in 1st Trimester
The past three days I have been having these odd 'cramps' under my bellybutton area. They come and go infrequently, but strong enough at times to make me wince. My query is : has anyone else had these and should I be worried? They sometimes feel like they go in a straight line from my bellybutton downwards, and the first day I felt them under my diaphragm.

    Could just be your uterus growing and stretching.  I had some super painful cramps the last couple of days.  They were insane!  Got an ultrasound this morning and found out that I have fibroids that are growing as my uterus is growing.  They won't harm my baby, but damn it HURTS!  Your cramps sound bearable though.  Sounds normal to me.

    I agree with pp.  Probably just stretching... I am 5w1d today and although i have had plenty of pulling/pressure/stretching/mild cramping, I felt some more intense cramps today... just took a tylenol and feeling better.  I think its all normal!!!

    The girls above are right.  I had the same cramping and when I asked my doc about it she said she would be worried if I wasn't having those issues :)

    Pregnancy has a way of screwing with your gall bladder. Your not far enough for it to be pushed up into your throat like mine is. But I had pain dull at first right behind my belly button, and by the next day I was screaming in pain and in the ER with morphine.

    If it gets worse have your gallbladder checked out. But it possibly could be streaching of you ute.

    Whew! That makes me feel A LOT better, believe me! I was worried it was something very harmful. Interestingly enough, I have large dermoid growths on both sides of my ovaries - and I have noticed they are ridiculously painful right now. I wonder if that has anything to do with it.
