Bloated, constipated, cramping...

[McBobby]

I am only 5 weeks + 4 days and have been badly constipated for over a week now. I am very thirsty so obviously dehydration is causing it but today I had the worst cramps ever at 11am ish. All the way round the front and right side. I fully expected to see some bleeding but nothing thankfully. It eased off and returned at 6pm ish. I've put it down to trapped wind and the fact that I'm constipated! I have no reason to believe otherwise....have I???

i hope your constipated too McBobby

seems a bit of a strange thing to say to someone but there you go

keep an eye on it but unless you have any bleeding it may just be a combination of constipation, trapped wind and a bit of womb stretching ...

also i sometimes find it hard to distinguish between digestive and womb aches

Thanks!

I'm quite in tune with my stretching as it's been on and off for a while same as last time. This felt different and when I'm at home and (TMI) free to allow my trapped bodily functions to perform it isn't as bad. It comes and goes too but I must admit I was scared yesterday. Let's hope today is better.
