i had cramps and pain bit like when AF is due early on in pregnancy i didn't test till i was over 5 weeks pregnant coz i was convinced af would turn up any time i think as long as you have no bleeding with it things are ok lots of stretching and things going on at the mo as well x

thanks just get so worried but i am told by my gp this is normal x

as sarah said you only need to worry if you are in agony or you are bleeding. I think you get those pains right through as you are stretching to allow for your baby to grow!!

I freaked out a lot about pains with my first pregnancy six years ago. This website saved my life!!!

This time I knew what to look out for, and still got worried!!!

I had them quite bad during week 5, lower back pain, period like cramps and a pulling sensation.

As others have pointed out, its just things stretching and changing and if you're not bleeding, nothing to worry about

Pains are Defo normal. Mine were horrid at 5 weeks, like period cramps which went right thru to my back. Its just everything shifting to make room x

I've had pains from 5 weeks and still getting them now at 9, although less severe now! I would be worried if I wasn't on here with people telling me its a normal part of pregnancy. So pleased I found PF
