[mumof4boys1979]

Hi all i am 7 weeks pregnant with 5th baby so im not new at this pregnancie thing lol, my concern is i am getting period like pains and lower back pains no bleeding though.Is this normal? cause i cant remember if ive had this b4......Im feeling very silly to have to ask,but im happy there is a group that you can chat about these things too. Ty if any1 replys x

Wow mumof4, congratulations on No. 5! I am sure someone will be along to be more helpful, but, for what its worth, I experienced exactly the same symptoms early on and now, coming up to Week 25 of pregnancy, things are going just fine! From what I have read, it seems to be a fairly normal state of affairs, and every baby seems to bring their own unique set of aches and pains! Best of luck

I turned 7 weeks on Saturday and had exactly as you describe for around 36 hours over the weekend. It's so worrying isn't it?!

Up until I was about 12 weeks pregnant, I constantly felt as if I was about to start my period...achy lower tummy and back, period pain cramps etc. I didnt have any bleeding, but totally thought I was about to! At 26 wks pregnant, baby is totally fine! I think lots of pople get theses pains in the first few months, its just everything stretching out. No worries x

im 6 weeks on saturday and am having exactly the same thing especially at night when im more relaxed tbh!

apparently its our uterus stretching out. making room for the long 9 months we have ahead x

congrates on baby number 5 !

im also 7 weeks with baby number 7 and finding it hard to rember what it was like with the others !??

this time round im finding the tirdness a real problem , im going to bed before the kids !

I had this at week 6 when I saw my GP, and she said it was entirely normal and should only cause concern if it was accompanied by bleeding - hth :)

yes this is completly normal
