Hi ladies.
I'm about 5 weeks pregnant and have been getting strong cramps 1-2 times a day which are painful and stop me in my tracks. They only last about 10 seconds and then go but while they are there I have to stop what I'm doing and breathe through them. I've noticed they are usually (although not always) after I have been still for a bit and then get up and move.
I'm worrying about them because everything I read says that early pregnancy cramps should be mild but these are definitely not. They are only bearable because they don't last too long but if they were constant they would definitely be severe!
Has anyone else had strong cramps like this? Should I be concerned and make and appointment at the docs? Or is if fairly common? I have had no bleeding / spotting. Thanks for your help.
This is the third post I have made since being pregnant worrying about stuff! I am wishing the next 7 weeks away without issue!!!
