Hi all, here for some more advice....

I am 14+2 currently 😃 had our first scan and everything is fine! I've had persistent cramps from finding out I was pregnant which was very early at like 3/4 weeks!

I am still cramping, little sharp pains consistent with what I was having throughout, is this normal at 14 weeks? Or should it have settled by now? I know everyone's different.

Thanks xxx

When you say cramps do you mean period type cramps ? I have these on and off sometimes they carry on for a couple of days ! Other times I think it's actually my bowels as I've been a little constipated and it can all feel the same. I think the little sharp pains is round ligament pain

Yeah like period cramps! And then the odd sharp pain that happens and instantly goes away....

I still get these at 20 weeks! I think it’s normal. If they get bad or really persistent then you should get it checked out though.

I just came on here looking for answers to the same question! Did your cramps settle? I'm 17 weeks and all week been having all over cramping on and off. Hope everything is ok for you.

Feeling so anxious, wishing the time away so I can meet baby girl and know everything is ok.

Does anyone else feel like this?

I hate being such a worrier. I worry about every single little thing. I'm almost 33 weeks. I love pregnancy and knowing this will be my last I want to enjoy it. But I find myself just wanting our baby to be here so I can see her and know all is ok. I do recall being quite anxious with my first two and all was OK, but recently struggle a lot more. I lost my best friend in a car accident 2 years ago and she was trying for a baby so I think I partly feel so lucky to have another baby, and also feel on edge knowing terrible things can happen.

I worry about every single thing I've eaten, or when I might have gone over the caffeine guideline by accident (I now don't have any caffeine) or when my belly quivers, or when I get cramps.

Feels horrible to wish the time away but just want to know everything will be OK.
