Tummy cramps right side

Hi ladies! Just wanted to pick your brains - I'm now approx 6 weeks and I've been having these tummy cramps all in one place on the right hand side of my tummy - just wanted to know if this was normal? I assumed I should be feeling them all over my tummy so worried that something isn't right?

I'd recommend contacting the early pregnancy unit at the hospital just to check, they !might want you I'm for a scan. Cramping can be normal with all the stretching that goes on, but always best to check with epu or your doctors.

Thanks applecore, thought cramps were pretty normal but it's all such a worrying time isn't it? I've called the docs and they're calling me back this morning. Thanks so much!

No problem, they are pretty normal, but always worth getting checked to aliviate any worries :) I had them in the beginning as well as some stabbing like pains, and am now 39+6. Hope all goes well for the rest of your pregnancy

Good news I think! Saw the GP and he felt my tummy and said that if the pain had been lower down then it would be something to worry about but as it's quite high up and I have no other symptoms then I should monitor it and if I feel like it's getting worse then to go back it. Phew! Thanks so much for your kind words applecore. Good luck for the rest of your pregnancy - not long to go now!!
