Weird stabby pains, 5/40

I keep getting weird fleeting pains or cramps about one inch below my belly button. A couple of times a day, each one lasts a few seconds at most then goes away. Doesn't feel at all like period pains as they are lower down and feel more generally pelvic and across my groins. This pain is in a very specific area and its quite high up.

No bleeding at all, otherwise feel fine.

Are they normal? Do other people get these? I'm wondering if its just the uterus stretching or the baby 'burrowing' in to the womb but its a really weird feeling I've never had before!

I got quite a few cramps when i was between 5-9 weeks (13 weeks now). As long as they don’t last very long and are quite mild they are considered normal. Mine normally disappeared if I changed position or went to the loo. It’s the ligaments starting to stretch and loosening ready to make room for your baby.
