I'm not entirely sure of your situation, but a few good things to do are to drink a lot of water, get in a cool place, and get off of your feet. If you are ever worried though, the best thing to do is to call the doctor. You don't want to take any chances.

I will give you the old standby as well, Call your doctor! Now, having said that I have something that might reassure you. I had horrible cramps when I was pregnant with my first baby, I didn't know I was pregnant till month five since I had my period until around month seven ( thedoctors called it spotting). During the first four months, I had cramping like I normally did during my period, but I had it all the time, even when not on my period. With my second pregnacy I miscarried at 11 weeks. I had the cramping, which my doc said was normal, but no periods this time, and on week 11 when I went to the restroom, I started having bleeding, Heavy like a period, then started passign clots! This is a huge red flag warning of an impending miscarriage if you don't have this, then don't sweat it, just chalk it up to growing a person in a pretty tight space! With my third pregnancy, I had horrible cramping, the worst ever, but no bleeding, and I have beautiful daughter to show for it! She was my biggest baby, so maybe that is why the cramping was so bad? She weighed 10lbs 6 oz! Just rest, relax, take some warm showers if it is cold where you are, or a cool one if you are in a warm place like me, and sit down and do your favorite most relaxing thing, and if you don't have one, get one like knitting, or needlepoint, or reading tons of pregnancy books checked out of your local library if you are low on funds! A by-product of reading all of those is that it will amaze you how much less scared you are, becuase you have read enough of the good and bad to mostly know what to expect when something scary or confusing happens! I will tell you that with my first daughter during delivery I was scared, and the labor was much harder because of it! With my youngest daughter, I knew all the procedures, and what they meant when they said scary words like decelleration. It kept me from being terrified, and I delivered much more quickly.

Cramps in early pregnancy are common. You should only be concerned if they are very painful and are accompanied by blood.

Your uterus is stretching and growing and this is probably what you are feeling.

But if you ever feel "something is not right" your doctor or midwife is just a phone call away. That's what they are there for. They can give you the reassurance you need.

I this same problem when i was pregnant with my daughter two years ago. My doctor said cramping is normal if it feels like period cramps. He also said cramping also occurs a little more intense around the time you would get your period. if the cramps get so painful thats when you need to go to the hospital. I used to put a heating pad on my back and it helped a lot!

you need to tell your doctor. However, if it feels like a small pinching cramp near your groin, and only lasts a little bit (seconds) then it could be your uterus growing/stretching, or it could be the baby sitting on a nerve. Persistent pain that lasts longer than a few seconds/minutes/days is unusual and you should talk to your doctor.

Call your doctor. No question is too silly or unimportant to call your doctor. That is what you pay him/her good money for. I know that I had cramps every month around the time I was supposed to get my period. I also had cramping from my muscles stretching to make room for the baby. But you need to call your doctor. It's probably nothing but you can't be too careful.

you should see your doctor as soon as possible, to make sure there is nothing wrong. Some times in early pregnancy you can tend to get a few little cramps, but it is best to get checked out.

Ps all the pain and discomfort is a GOOD sign, it means the baby is growing, making room for movements, and as long as you continue to feel it, you know your baby is healthy.,be concerned when you don't feel anything

The cramps you are experienceing could just be your utuerus enlarging to make room for your growing baby. But either way if it is hurting you should see your doctor just to be sure everything is ok .

I bet that it is round ligament pain. Google hat and see if you are feeling what they describe. Your uterus has to stretch to make room for that baby and it hurst sometimes but it shouldn't be unbearable. If it is you should call your doctor.
