Hi guys!

Did anyone suffer with cramps during their first trimester?

They feel like period cramps but they can be so uncomfortable at times

Yes! This is normal. I'm 4+6 and have been having cramps ever since I found out. They feel just like period pains but milder. Apparently it's the uterus expanding.

Yes I’ve had that, currently 9 weeks. Also a lot of pulling feelings. Just the uterus stretching 😌

Absolutely! I'm 12 weeks and have loads of stretching and cramps. Had scan yesterday and baby is fine and extra wriggly!
