Period Like Cramps in 2nd trimester

Hello ladies!

I am about 13 weeks and have been experiencing period like cramps. There's no bleeding or anything like that. It's just cramping alot.

Is this normal? Should I be worried?

Thanks!xo

Re: Period Like Cramps in 2nd trimester

  • I'm 11 weeks and I still get them from time to time.  Especially if you're a FTM, you uterus has a lot of stretching to do.  Mine usually get better if I drink more water.

    Last time I had them on and off through out second tri as well.  They're normal as long as they're not severe and you have bleeding.

  • According to my doctor, as long as not accompanied by bleeding, totally normal! Take a tylenol if the pain is bothering you. If they get excruciating, that's a different story. Your uterus has to stretch a LOT! I think of it like how we have growth spurts. Feel better soon!

  • I tend to get them when I've exercised or haven't had enough water. Like @Angelsnight mine ease off when I drink lots of water and rest.
  • I have them too, and I'm a STM.

  • I'm a STM as well, and have had them from the very beginning of both pregnancies. Without bleeding, totally normal!
