I had cramps that lasted about 2 weeks around that stage. I will say though that I wouldn't have described them as 'pains'. More like mild cramps, not even enough really to register as uncomfortable. If you are in a lot of pain to the point of being sent home it might be worth putting your mind at rest and booking an appointment with your GP.

I agree it sounds like they're alittle too painful to be totally normal, I also described mine as cramps may be get it checked . Good luck xx

I had cramps on and off for 2 weeks in early pregnancy. It is just your muscles stretching to make room. I had one night of really uncomfortable cramps but nothing a hot water bottle couldn't sooth. Try not to panics, you can tke paracetamol if you want to try and take the edge off them a bit x

tried a hot water bottle last night when i went to bed made the pain worse at first then it settled down alot xx

Kelli try not to worry as long as you have no spotting with it it's totally normal list your uterus stretching and baby getting comfy. Take it easy and you'll feel much better. I had exactly the same thing. I get a few twinges now but nothing too painful anymore.

i would say for a first or second pregnancy the ligamant and stretching pains is a lot worse than the likes of say ladies onto 3rd etc as our muscles etc are a whole lot weaker and so not as painfyll wen stretching etc, but last night omg i had sum realy bad tummy pains that i knew were my bowel area i was doubled over and then i thought to myself u havnt been for a few days and then well i did luckily we had just got home from having a meal i dred to think lol xxx
