Hi all
I'm 11 weeks and 4 days today but since getting to 11 weeks I haven't had any of the cramping that I did during weeks 4 - 9
They were spontaneous cramps that I would get now and then and last merely seconds
I've had hardly any symptoms anyway so these cramps gave me reassurance that things were happening down there
I had a scan at 10 weeks 6 days and everything looked great baby was wriggling away.
I'm just scared because I haven't had any cramps and I was told these meant that everything was stretching and now I haven't got them I'm worried incase the baby isn't growing now?

Please try not to worry, although I know it's easier said than done! I barely had any 'cramps' nor any symptoms bar a couple of weeks of horrendous nausea.

I'm 21 weeks today and still can't really feel anything!

I'm sure all is well and bub is growing wonderfully.

Aww thank you @TTC12023 for responding and making me feel at ease! I'm really hoping everything is okay xx

Absolutely normal for symptoms to stop around this time as the placenta takes over. I’m exactly 11 weeks today and my nausea is gone since yesterday and I haven’t had my usual cramping so far this week. Same happened when I was pregnant with my DD-all symptoms stopped at just over 10 weeks.
I honestly wouldn’t worry about it at all. Feel free to also join is in the “Due June 2024” where there are lots of women with similar experience xx

Heyyy...

I remember feeling like that sometimes. Honestly, just enjoy it. Unless you've got pain or bleeding there shouldn't be anything wrong. Little one is happily growing and twirling around.

I think the cramping comes and goes, I had more of it between weeks 4 and 6 then it seemed to ease off a lot. The night before my 12 week scan, I suddenly had awful cramps, to the extent I thought my period was going to arrive - everything was fine though! In my experience just when you think a symptom is gone, it comes back and sometimes worse than ever 😂

Thank you @PurpleIsTheColour for the reassurance ❤️ I have my 12 week scan on Tuesday and I can't actually wait to get there and find out how it's all going!
I will keep an eye out on the June 2024 thread thank you xx

Similar to the others please try not to worry, have faith over fear!

Between week 11 and week 32 was the greatest weeks for me, barely had symptoms, my skin was great, I had more energy and my mood was lovely. I'm now 38 weeks and the cramps have come back. Though still very much a blessing!

Many say the second trimester is the best because many symptoms from first trimester calm down. It's likely you are experiencing this xx
And congratulations!

My dates are pretty much the same as you (12 week scan on Thurs!) and have also not had any recent cramps, so nothing to worry about I think!

Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy 😊

Aww how exciting!! @Bax765 😘 and thank you for sharing your experience ❤️
I've had two early losses and this is the furthest I've got which is why I'm always nervous lol
Wishing you all the best with your scan and congrats!!
