Have you had a busy day - rushing around a lot?
I had this when pregnant with DS2 when I'd overdone things a bit.

Sit down and put your feet up. If it gets worse, ring your MW.

Some cramps normal I think (all that stretching)

Yes, do they feel almost like Braxtons?

Like Humph, even that early on in PG No 2 I got something similar.

MamaG · 16/05/2008 16:12

Yes, I have been busy today - big cleaning blitz, long dog walk, packing for weekend away etc
don't really feel like braxtons, but it is 4 years since I was last pg so I may be wrong!

I have similarish aches i am 17 weeks and it feels like its all stretching (ligaments etc)

How is your posture?
I now sit with loads of cuhsions and pillows on the sofa and it seems to help.

MamaG · 16/05/2008 16:14

My posture is crap

Typically, since I clicked on post, I feel fine

just had a mini-wobble, now you've said that, they did feel sort of stretchy

You need to rest Mamag! It's probably just stretching and over exertion, but if it doesn't go away you need to contact your midwife.

(oh and I'll be logging off shortly and will be offline all weekend, so if anybody worries (not that you will hehe) thats why I'm not posting! - Lulu I'm talking to you!)
