Hi I'm currently 8+6 but was measuring 9 weeks on Monday so slightly confused 😕

But is it common to get such bad cramps? I'm in so much pain under my rib cage , this is my 3rd pregnancy I'm pretty sure it didn't hurt like this before , I have done a load of walking and I do have a cyst too on my right ovaries which is 7cm , but it's mainly on my left side and travelling to my lower back is this normal ?
Please anyone I'm panicking and don't fancy looking on google and that will not help one bit xx

If it's up by your ribs, it's a good chance it's bad constipation or wind. I didn't have that, but I had horrible twinges and pain until about week 11 (nearly 15 weeks now). Hope you're feeling better soon.

You need to see a doctor. There are lots of non- pregnancy related conditions it could be. Get an appointment in the morning.

It could be trapped wind . I do suffer with ibs. But I got that's sorted from doctors a while back . But never felt like this before . Scan showed everything was progressing well on Monday. Thank you x

Potentially Gall stones. Pain around the rib cage is typical. Get seen quickly you may need antibiotics to calm down any inflammation.

Hey how did you get on?

I don't want to frighten you but this is the exact pain I had and 2 weeks later found out baby had died around the time of these pains. I thought it was trapped wind and that it would pass.. it did after a couple days and then I had diarrhea. Great constipation/gas cured! Did speak to the hospital about the diarhea as it lasted a week and they wasn't concerned. Rest of the two weeks only thing I had was bad headaches. 13 week 2 day scan came around and baby had died around the time of those pains. It may be nothing but that's exactly what I thought and I clearly didn't seek enough help so please please be seen

Hi , my pain went and it was trapped wind, I took paracetamol and went to bed early and woke up completely fine . I did have direhea this morning sorry tmi, but I suffer with IBS badly anyway so it could be constipation and trapped wind at the same time . I've had nothing since but if comes back I'll ring GP I'm sorry for your loss . My next scan is now in may . This is my 3rd baby so body is pulling everything x
