OK the people who say phone your gp straight away clearly have not been pregnant before! The feeling you are getting very well could just be your body still adjusting to the feotus. If you truely are worried, give your doc a call & if he/she deems it serious, they will ask you to come in. Dont worry too much hun that wont help you or baby any, so just do what you feel is right. If your gut (no pun intended) is telling you something isnt right then off you go to the doc, if you feel iffy about it just call your doc or local community nurse. Best of luck, may the angels be with you.
I might add that I too had this in my first trimester & again in the last few weeks but I gave birth to a perfectly natural bub.

Well congratulations, and if your every concerned about your baby, see your GP. After having a miscarriage you should see your GP if your ever worried as they should watch this pregnancy more carefully to help reduce the risk of another miscarriage. Been 11 weeks pregnant your uterus should be stretching now so that could be causing the cramping like feelings, by next week your uterus will be to large to fit in your pelvis so it has grown quite a bit over the past 11 weeks. If there is any bleeding or spotting see your GP ASAP.
On a higher note, I had a miscarriage at 13 weeks but didn't know until my 18 week ultrasound and had a D&C in April, In June I fell pregnant again and carried to full term. I have a healthy 4 year old son. I really hope everything is going great and it is just streaching. Streaching can be painful but it only last's a little while and it shouldn't be constant if it is then see you GP.
Good luck. I wish you all the best for a beautiful happy and healthy baby.

since you have already suffered a miscarriage not too long ago and you are now 11 weeks and you are cramping I would consult your doctor and have them do an exam just to be sure everything is ok..
You can't be completely certain that all is ok.. it is slightly common for some cramping at this stage in pregnancy but with a previous miscarriage I would consult my doctor on any type of cramping.
Good Luck

Speak to your GP, they'll prob want to check you over to reassure you. Dont ever worry that you are calling your doctor too much as you go through your pregnancy, thats what they are there for. Its not good to be sitting worrying, when you can call the doc and put your mind at ease.
I hope all is well, and keep us posted x

Well you should defently give him a call but I'll tell you, i lost my first baby at 9 weeks too and by the second pregnancy i had cramps too, but the doc said it was normal...my son is 3 1/2 years old now....so go see your doc just to be sure that everything is okay.

Anything like that, definately. What the hell are you asking us for anyway? Get on the phone to your doctor straight away. If you have a midwife - phone him/her instead, as s/he will probably be able to give you clearer answer.
Either It was wind, don't I feel foolish or it could be serious and you need to act now. Your midwife/doctor would rather put your mind at rest. Better it turns out to be a foolish worry than have you lose your baby. Phone them, its what they are there for.

Go to the doctors NOW. Whatever your history - any cramps should be checked out immediately.
I'm sorry for your miscarriage - I hope this pregnancy is fine

Hi Ollie
Yes please do phone your doctor right away. I remember my 1st baby and i lost that baby. But i got pregnant straight away and you sound very much like me, I had all the cramps and soreness and worried the whole 9months my daughter is 23 now and has her own baby, Just put your mind to rest and ring the doctor could be nothing love.

Don't wait. Anytime you feel something like that you should go to an emergency room or your regular Dr. right away. It might be nothing, but given your history it's better to be safe than sorry. Good Luck to you.
