170623 tn?1242664063 I had cramping and stretching feelings every day in my first trimester and off and on during the second. They never lasted too long, and were never strong cramps, but noticeable and did make me worry. But, I've heard it's perfectly normal! It's stopped in my second trimester. I feel little cramps now and then but def. not as much. Hope this helps to ease your mind. I wouldn't worry unless they are heavy, long-lasting cramps with spotting.

Avatar f tn Hi ladies! I am about five weeks along now and I was wondering when most of you stopped cramping if you experienced any at all.

Avatar f tn Me too, I had cramps during my first trimester. It's totally normal. I'm now 19 weeks and experience less cramping. Doc says it's from your ligaments and muscles stretching to support your growing uterus. Not to worry unless your cramping is accompanied by bleeding or spotting.
Avatar f tn Has anyone experienced menstrual like cramps early in pregnancy? I am almost 6 weeks and have off and on menstrual like cramps anywhere from my sides to my pelvic area. I had an ovarian cyst rupture recently so I was told the pain in my side came from the fluid left around my ovaries and that it would take care of itself. It has been 11 days since the cyst ruptured but I still occasionally have pain.

20922415 tn?1661860103 s most important functions is to cause the endometrium to secrete special proteins during the second half of the menstrual cycle, preparing it to receive and nourish an implanted fertilized egg. If implantation does not occur, estrogen and progesterone levels drop, the endometrium breaks down and menstruation occurs. 2. Role in Pregnancy: If pregnancy occurs, progesterone is produced in the placenta, and levels remain elevated throughout the pregnancy.

3136223 tn?1367960716 1. Cramping and light spotting after sex is normal during pregnancy. 2. When pregnant, your body releases relaxin which relaxes your joints so your pelvis can open up during delivery. This starts in the first trimester which is why pregnant women are more susceptible to strains and other joint issues. So if you are indeed pregnant, you may want to inform your Dr for a more knowledgeable opinion, but I don't think you should stress out bc of these things.
Avatar f tn Is it normal to have period like cramps during your pregnancy? Im 13 wks. I had those cramps this passed Monday, it woke me out of my sleep. It really made nervous and i checked to make sure i wasn't bleeding and i wasn't.
Avatar n tn There are various reasons of bleeding during pregnancy so yes You can have PERIOD LIKE bleeding and be pregnant at the same time but not actual period.Very few woman experience bleeding for few months at the same time when they would have got their period if thery were not pregnant but thats very very rare and by the time they reach their 2nd trimester this stops.

Avatar n tn Did you have a doctor when you had a molar pregnancy? That would be a good person to call. I would wait to see what happens. I'm sorry you are experiencing this. If you start bleeding, then you can go to the ER. Women do have things that feel like menstrual cramps during the first trimester. And all can be just fine. So, don't assume. Try to rest a little.
