belly pain from stress?

Hi ladies, quick question.

I'm 15 weeks and yesterday my husband and I moved to a new house.

There was some bad miscommunication that led to us not getting our keys until almost 8 p.m. after closing on our old home early yesterday morning and the new home after noon. The title company and realtors were NOT helping at all and I spent the better part of the day sick with worry and crying. I was way more emotional than I should have been, but I've kind of hit that point in pregnancy where EVERY little thing makes me cry. 

I had quite a bit of stomach discomfort last night...kind of some cramping off to the sides and low. Nothing that made me double over or anything but my husband noticed I kept holding my stomach. Will stress do this? Is it normal? I'm a FTM and I don't know if it's too early to have BH, or really what those even feel like. I checked baby's HB last night and it sounded good and baby also sounded pretty active. 

For the record, I did lift a few things, including helped carry in a queen-sized bed but DH is a fireman and wouldn't let me overdo it. I believe I stayed under my 25-pound lifting limit my doctor gave me. Thanks for reading. :)

    It could be from stress but if you were not eating right it could be from poop and gas (if you daily schedule was all out of wack).  I had a lot of stomach discomfort the last several weeks but this week it seems to have eased up.

    Could also be growing pains.  I hope you feel better soon and that you enjoy your new house!

    I used to work at a title company and most closings are trainwrecks!  So glad that is not my life anymore

    :D

    After traveling internationally by myself, and getting dehydrated slightly, I had similar pain. It was rough.

    My doctor said it was round ligament pain. But I would ask your doctor if you are worried. After a day or two of drinking water and Gatorade and resting, I felt better. She also said Tylenol was ok, and that made a huge difference.

    Sounds more like pain from over doing it than from stress. Hope you've rested and are feeling better.

    I agree with @Jennifer18131‌ about the over doing it.
    I had pain on my right lower quadrant for quite a long time. I was not drinking nearly enough fluids and over doing it. The pain did not go away until well into a hour of sitting. Then as I got active again the pain came back.
    So make sure to take breaks and relax.
    Enjoy your new home and sorry to hear about the train wreck of closing.
