everyone's body responds differently in pregnancy and I wouldn't say it was abnormal, given both are slight - your body starts doing weird and wonderful things in pregnancy with hormonal changes and production of relaxin etc. and there are a lot more bodily changes to come! if you are concerned you could always run it past your GP, but I wouldn't worry tbh. enjoy your pregnancy!

To be frank, even if it was problematic, there is nothing you can do at that stage to prevent the worst from happening. It's worrying over something you can't control, which is a bit pointless, ifyswim.

Doesn't sound worrying to me. I swore I was about to start bleeding at any moment at that point.

If the pain gets worse or keeps going, or if you are worried, of course go see a doctor. But don't let anxiety rule you is my advice.
