UPDATE Scary night. Severe cramps

Howardbae2015 · October 2015

Hi ladies, so I'm freaked out and I don't know what to think. Thankfully I'm seeing doctor today. Anyways last night I woke up to the worst cramps ever! The pain almost made my sick to my stomach. I went to the bathroom expecting to start bleeding any second. I began sweating as the cramps got more intense. I had only experienced this pain once before when I was given cytotek (or however you spell it) for my previous MC. It lasted for about 45 mins, then the pain subsided and I was able to go back to bed. Absolutely no blood so that was reassuring! I feel fine today, just extra tired from a long night! I'm 4 weeks 6 days today. I know cramping is normal, but this was a whole other level!!!

UPDATE: thank you for everyone's support, it always is encouraging and means a lot! I just came back from doctor and she didn't seem concerned, she said unless I have bleeding or it lasts longer than an hour, she believes it's no biggie. She said it could be a variety of things from normal uterus expansion to gas pains. It makes me relieved to hear this, I hope I don't have to experience that again. It was so scary I almost went to the ER. I would be sooooo embarrassed to go to the ER and it turn out to be gas pains hahaha!! they also drew blood to double check levels, so FX those come back good! Thanks again for all your support. I love being in great company and I hope I'm here to stay!

This was me for about 3 solid weeks for DD. It was so bad, I had to take tylenol (approved by doctor of course) as much as the dosage would allow and it still didn't touch the pain! It would wake me up in the middle of the night. I seriously contemplated the ER everyday for about a week. Doc said it was my uterus expanding to make room for baby. So try to think positive! It can be majorly scary though. FX that it was a one time thing.

I'm sorry you're going through this! I woke up yesterday afternoon from a nap with severe cramps and started spotting a couple hours later. I'm waiting to see what happens but it is definitely a good thing you're not spotting! My doctor thinks it might be implantation bleeding and the cramps where the uterus pushing the little bit of blood out.

You can also get very bad cramps if you're very constipated and that's not a problem!

We worry for our fellow mommies-to-be so please let us know how it goes!
