15+3 weeks cramping & lower back pain

[Gra2022]

Hello,

I’m currently 15+3 weeks with my second baby and the last few days I’ve been getting cramps that feel like my period is just about to start and my lower back has been quite sore as well. I never experienced this with my first pregnancy so I’m not sure if I should be concerned or not!

I first assumed the pain could have been the stretching pain starting back up again after my two week break of it, however I’m unable to shift this with painkillers and the pain is almost leaving me to tears, it’s gotten so intense all of a sudden.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is it normal? Any/all feedback is appreciated, my mind is running wild😭

thank you x

Hi OP, I'm also 15w and a few days, period like cramps are definitely normal throughout pregnancy, but would be concerned that the pain is leaving you in tears, have you experienced any bleeding or spotting? And how is the pain now? Let me know xx
