15 weeks period pains/achey

[earlytwentiesmama]

Hi everyone,

I'm 15 weeks pregnant and I've had a few cramps on and off throughout but they really subsided after 12 weeks. Since then it's just been the sharp ones which I guess is ligament pain.

Jusy this afternoon I have a period type pain right across the middle of my tummy where my belly button is and slightly below and some leg aches? I'm really worried about it and wondered if it's normal or not?

I can phone midwife tommorow but I'm just getting myself in a real panic about it! Thankyou x

I'm 2 days from 21 weeks and have found the entire pregnancy rather painful so far. Been checked over a few times, baby seems fine. Had my 20 week scan last Tuesday and got similar pains that you describe from Thursday afternoon to late Saturday. Was becoming really worried (took co-codamol to manage), but they then subsided. Have had 2-3 days lasting pains a few times, seems related to things moving, reorganising, stretching. But if worried, please do not hesitate to call your midwife or maternity assessment unit. xx
