Lower Abdomen Pain HELP!

Hello everyone! 

I am on my 13 weeks, and I have lower abdomen pain like I am having period. Is this normal and are there anyone here who experienced the same? Thanks a lot! 

Re: Lower Abdomen Pain HELP!

  • Im a few weeks behind you and haven't experienced that yet, but if you're having bad cramping, a call to your doctor isn't unwarranted. At the very least they can ease your mind and if it isn't normal, they can have you come in to make sure everything is okay. Hope you feel better!

  • Thank you so much!
  • Cramping is normal, your uterus is streching. You will also get something fondly called lightning crotch and rlp. Pregnancy is fun lol

  • I got really bad cramps at 12 weeks for one evening which was scary but it passed after 15 mins! So I think this is normal if it comes and goes. If it is ongoing then I would speak to a doctor.
  • Yup. I'm 13+2 and have mild cramping every now and then which feels similar to the cramping I would normally have during my period. As PP's have said, cramping can be totally normal - your body is making room for a human being in there. If it's not accompanied by spotting or bleeding, I wouldn't be too concerned. As always though, if you ARE concerned, give your doctor a call!
  • If your concerned I would contact your doctor.
    I have had cramping almost daily since 6 weeks(12 weeks today). A couple night I thought for sure we were losing our baby as they were that painful. We had an early ultrasound and baby looked great! So for now they are saying I have irritable uterus. Hoping to see another healthy baby today at our ultrasound.
    Even though cramping can be normal listen to your body and if you feel something is off its best to get checked
  • I am 13/5 with twins and have been experiencing this the past couple days. My friend calls it "moving the furniture." It's your uterus and ligaments stretching. Laying down helps. Drinking lots of water.

  • I remember that with my previous pregnancies. Call the doc for reassurance but I think what you are feeling is normal.

  • I'm also having some pain/cramping on my right lower abdomen and I spoke with my doc today and they said its round ligament pain. I googled some yoga stretches and tried them to relieve the pressure and that has helped a little.

  • I get it every now and then. Drink lots of water. I try to drink a bottle before calling.. If it goes away within 15 mins I know I'm fine. Otherwise if it's persistent and pretty bad, I call.
