Cramps

Anyone get belly cramps at night or in the morning, I keep thinking I’ve slept funny in my sleep and it’s making me paranoid, I’m 13+3 I thought maybe stretching pains? Or maybe because I went to bed straight after eating? It feels like I’ve done a workout and my muscles are sore if that makes sense

I’ve had cramps on/off throughout my pregnancy and I’m nearly 15w. Mine usually get better if I move position or stand up, I believe mine got worse in week 13 so I do think it’s stretching

I had cramps that felt like period pain in the really early weeks 3-5 (I some how found out about the pregnancy very early) and that did worry me.

But now I’m closer to the end of the first trimester it’s a different kind of cramp and no where near as troubling! In my last pregnancy I had some cramps and pains and it really is just stretching! There’s a lot going on in there.

I’m 14 weeks, and have had cramps/stretching pains for several weeks. I wake up feeling like I’ve done sit ups in my sleep.
I’m going to try eating smaller portions at mealtimes, although it’s hard when I’m SO hungry all the time. I definitely feel better than I did a month ago, when a bowl of pasta would leave me incapacitated with indigestion.
The cramps in my uterus may be due to fibroids sharing the space, but the stretching in my abdomen I’m guessing is just my bump getting bigger?
I might try taking photos every few days of my bump to judge how much it’s really increasing in size. I feel like I’m getting noticeably bigger at quite a fast rate, but I can’t be sure.

Thank you everyone @ES1986 that’s exactly how I feel like
