Mild cramping in first trimester?

Question

did any of you mothers feel any on and off mild period like cramping witin your first trimester (say 5-6 weeks?) If so, how long did it last? Did you go on to have a healthy baby?

Answer 1

My doctor told me menstrual-like cramping is normal during the first trimester, as your uterus grows. It's called round ligament pain. As long as you don't have any bleeding, you are fine!

Answer 2

I'm 5 weeks and have had it for 2 weeks. With my first pregnancy I had it the whole time. My daughter is a healthy and normal 2 year old. You will feel weird things the whole time. There's a lot going on!!

Answer 3

I did have menstrual like cramping in my first trimester. It is completely normal if the cramping gets sharper and deeper then call your doctor, otherwise; there is nothing to worry about.

Answer 4

i had some on and off cramping very mild and its normal i now have a beautiful 8 month old if your concerned you can call your nurse and ask what they think but when your baby grows so does everything else , your ligaments stretch and that can cause cramping.

Answer 5

Answer 6
