Super low cramps

Meganb005 · May 2015

I've been having cramps a lot today! I'm 12 weeks 3 days. They aren't severe and when I say low, I mean really low!! Like an inch or 2 below my pubic hair line. It's really weird, whenever I had period cramps it was a few inches higher. Anyone else experience this? I live in a small town and my doctors office doesn't have an after hours line to call and I'm working myself up about it.

It's just your uterus starting to stretch for the baby. You will get cramps and some times light pulling feelings. It's just your body getting ready

Growing pains. Totally normal.

The other ladies are right, completely normal! As long as they aren't severe and you don't have any bleeding, you don't have anything to worry about.

I have been feeling all sorts of various cramps the past week. They are usually in different areas and sometimes it's just a quick random thing and sometimes its just for a few minutes then never feel anything again the entire day. None of it has ever felt like menstrual cramps so I try not to get in a bother about it.

I know it's tough, OP. All the unknowns really mess w your head. Just try not to fret too much. I would only worry if it's severe, going on for several hours or days.

Round ligament pains!! It's a mixture of your uterus growing g and everything shifting around to make more room.

Make sure you are very well hydrated. Happened to me as well and my midwife pointed out that this can happen even if I shorted myself a glass or two. I loaded up on water, cramps went away within 24 hour period
