Anyone else with this symptom? Is it normal?

edited December 2013 in August 2014 Moms
I woke up this morning and my stomach feels really tight and sore. Like I worked out and overstretched the muscles, and a little crampy. Also my mid and upper back is kinda hurting...Anyone else feeling like this? Is it just my belly getting ready to get huge in the next few months? I am so afraid of having a m/c I just want to make sure this isn't a warning sign! Thanks everyone!

Re: Anyone else with this symptom? Is it normal?

  • I don't really know what tight like you just worked out means.... I mean are you saying the muscles are sore?  I just have had cramps off and on.  They are not as bad as they were throughout week 4 but they come and go.  I really cannot say if it is normal or not.  I can tell you that I had two mc and they were painful but I don't think what you describe is how I would describe it.  Everyone is different so really.... no one can tell ya for sure what is going on.  Just try not to worry too much.
    No its not painful, just like overworked abs and a little cramping and back pain. Nothing severe. I was just wondering if anyone else experienced this. Thanks :)

  • I definitely have some cramping.  It's like PMS-like cramping, but not as strong.  And my lower back aches, also.

  • Yes! Im having same symptoms! I havent heard of anyone else having sore ab muscles so Im glad you posted this! I am also having period cramps along with lower back pain... I called Dr. and they wanted to do blood tests to make sure everything was ok.. Still waiting.. I have heard all of this is normal, just being cautious b/c my first pregnancy
  • This is exactly me, like way too many crunches!  It is all focused in my upper abdomen, right under my rib cage around my diaphragm.  Last night, pain started on the right side pretty intense, but again, it was high.  My back is usually sore so I assume this is my normal back pain.  So glad this was posted!  I haven't been pregnant in 7 years and feel like a newbie sometimes!

  • My abs have been "workout" sore for a few days, too, which is hilarious to me because my actual workouts have been really wimpy lately. I had some cramping earlier but it has subsided for now. Glad to hear others have been going through the same thing!

  • So glad to hear other people have the same symptoms and I'm not crazy!
