10 weeks and still getting period like cramps, anyone else?

I’m 10+4 today and still getting occasional period like cramps. I seem to think that these had settled down by now when I was having my DD.

I’m also getting a bit of pain around my right hip and when I sneeze, roll over at a funny angle or cough I get these awful pains at the front on either side of my ‘bump’. Have read up that these could be round ligament pains so not too worried about that it’s more the period like cramps.

Still have sore boobs and symptoms have been quite strong over the last week and a half. Just wanted a bit more reassurance really. Last two pregnancies have ended in MC.

I am 14 weeks and still have all this! Period like cramps now and then, pain when sneezing or moving too quickly sometimes, boobs still very sore! I have had 2 scans 1 at 9+2 and the other at 13 weeks and everything is fine so I wouldn't worry about it!

Good luck x

9+2 and I get all the symptoms you mention except the very sore boobs. Have missed out on that joy.

I had period like cramps for pretty much the whole first trimester, and probably into early second. In fact my cramps were so bad at the beginning that I was convinced I was coming on, I was quite surprised when I got a positive test a few days later. I also get the pain you mention when sneezing etc but mine has always been my ovaries, not sure why I get it but I've had them scanned prior to becoming pregnant and then again at both of my pregnancy scans and they're fine. Maybe mention it to your midwife though so they can check that they are ok when you do for your first scan (I think they check them routinely anyway)

Thanks all.

I went to the loo earlier, wiped one time all ok then wiped again and there was a dot of red blood but I don’t think it was from me as I’ve checked and checked again.

OH says that he’s been living a spot (lovely) and that he could’ve put the blood on the loo roll when he went to the loo after picking his spot.

Of course I’m still having cramps and my mind is going into overdrive. I want to ring EPU but don’t want to take a scan for someone more in need. Arrrggghhhhhh thought I was passed all this!

I’m still having cramps at 12+5 but trying to focus on it being the baby growing (worrying about it anyway though!) rather than anything actually worrying. Also get bad round ligament pains from time to time.

I think if it was a tiny spot I would hold fire and see what happens tomorrow! Fingers crossed for you.
