Hi I am 9 weeks and 3 days pregnant. I have had a rather easy pregnancy so far in that I have had no morning sickness at all! Smile Just tiredness, sore breasts & bloating mostly.
I have noticed in the last couple of days though I have had more twinges and aches around my uterus than before? Just can't help but be a little worried as its different now. Also when I laugh or cough I get an awful pain there too which is quite sharp but then goes seconds later when I stop laughing or coughing. What could that be?

Hi Charlotte, I'm nearly 17 weeks & experienced the same as you over the last few weeks, I just put it down to things stretching but it did scare me at 1st. It started up again yesterday just after i'd seen my midwife...typical. I had funny stabbing/tingly pains today where the weird pain was yesterday, its right where the midwife listened to the heartbeat, she said she could hear the baby kicking but i couldn't feel it, so not sure if its the baby kicking but it was quite uncomfortable. Hopefully someone will come along and give you some reassurance.

I am 16 weeks and have had the same, feels like bad period pains/cramps at times. People call it stretching pains I think. Nothing to worry about in itself x

It's just stretching pains. The sharp pains when you cough/laugh/sneeze are just where your muscles are more easily pulled due to the hormone relaxin.

I didn't mean to sound so harsh, sorry! I mean its all normal, try not to worry and congratulations!

Im exactly the same-9w3d - sneezed this morning and actually cried out it was so sore! It felt like i trapped something in between my pelvis, but after a few seconds the pain had gone, just the same as the other week
Good luck OP

Hysterical u didnt seem harsh :)

Thanks everyone that has really calmed me down Smile glad its not anything unusual or to be worried about! Can't wait for my scan and that should help me relax a lot more too.
