Sharp twinges in middle of abdomen?

[Cafeaulait27]

I’m 6 weeks today, no children and had 2 early losses last year. I just noticed this afternoon and evening I’m getting the occasional very sharp twinges right in the middle of my lower abdomen... they only last a second but sort of make me wince a bit.

Should I be worried? I haven’t experienced any bleeding and it’s definitely in the middle, not on either side.

It all sounds normal to me.
As long as its not accompanied by bleeding its completely normal

@SnooperTrooper12345 thank you! It seems to have stopped today... maybe it was just a muscle spasm or my uterus getting bigger who knows? Everything worries me!

I'm 13 weeks and have been feeling this for a good few weeks now. It happen when I make any sort of sudden movement or twist, like standing up without being slow and careful.

I think it's because of your cervix stretching as well as tummy muscles pulling as they're moving and shifting. If you're worried at all though you can always give your midwife/pregnancy hospital a quick call to help check and put your mind at ease

Perfectly normal, I’ve had it with both pregnancies. Bloody sore sometimes though. I think it’s all the internal stretching that’s going on.

Good luck with it all x

@AllTheOtherNamesWereTaken ah thank you that it reassuring. It actually started after a stressful day at work (at my desk at home anyway as I’m wfh due to covid) and it was after I stood up and then continued on and off all evening. I wonder if I’d been tensed up and caused it when I got up or something.

I do sometimes get milder twinges when I move positions it must be due to all the stretching xx

@Mixitupalot that’s good to know! Yeah it must be that. Everything is such a worry isn’t it! I also get mild period type cramps on and off too, and get scared I’m miscarrying, even though with my mc it started with brown spotting and then red, and I didn’t start cramping until nearer the end when the mc actually really started to happen.

My first pregnancy ended in mc at 9 weeks, brown spotting started at around 7+4 so I’m very anxious all the time that it’s going to happen again!

Thank you for your reassuring answers. When I google these symptoms it’s a mixed bag on different websites but when I read one which says bad news I freak out. Bloody google! Xx
