Early pregnancy pain and tender abdomen

I am sure I am just being too anxious, but is it normal to have pains and cramping on one side of the abdomen? The pains are not that bad and come and go. The other side does twinge a bit occasionally but mostly just the right side, and it does feel a tiny bit tender on that side too. Is that all normal? I am hoping I am just stressing about nothing. I have an appointment with my midwife tomorrow.

I had this at 7 weeks and went to the epu convinced it was an ectopic pregnancy. The sonographer found what she called 'the biggest pocket of trapped bowel gas' that she had ever seen. It was pushing against my ovary causing the pain. If it feels sharp or worsens, go to the epu. If not, it is likely to be normal stretching. Flowers

I had it, and as with Loki it was gas - really, really bad gas. But I was sent in for a scan as they were worried it was ectopic. I'd call your midwife/ GP and get it checked just in case.

Ok hopefully it is just that! I have had it for maybe three days but I guess maybe these things build up occasionally!! Thanks ladies, and will definitely bring it up when I see the midwife tomorrow Smile

sorry to jump on the post..

I need some help. I have taken a few hpt and have been getting all extremely faint positives. the lines haven't got any darker for a week. I had to have a scan on my pelvic today as I have been getting pains but they wouldn't tell me if I was pregnant or not. is this a gud sign?

I had the same thing, I was petrified that something was wrong. DP took me to the hospital where they were pretty awful and rude towards me. Wasn't given a scan or sent to an EPU. Luckily everything was fine
