Avatar f tn Mentrual like cramps are normal in early pregnancy ,you have them because your uterus is stretching/expanding and making room for the baby.If it is not severe or you experience bleeding then nothing to worry abt it is normal.Have a healthy 9 months.

Avatar f tn Yesterday i had a few sharp pains in my lower right side but nothing like what my menstrual cramps are. They werent cramps it was just a sharp pain and it only happened a few times. Again today it happened but again nothing like menstrual cramps. My question is about discharge though. I track my cervical fluid every month as well as my temperatures so i know wen im ovulating.

Avatar f tn In my first pregnancy I cramped like menstrual cramps. That's how I knew I was pregnant as hadn't had a period for years. It's very normal indeed.

Avatar f tn I am having mild menstrual pains daily..I m actualy thnking of going 2 c my dr 2moro.
Avatar f tn Within that week the symptons that I been experiencing were bloating, sore breast and back aches. I recently been experiencing menstrual cramps off and on for three days. Is the menstrual cramps a sign of pregnacy? I am due to take my blood test June 10th 2008. I am praying that this will work. In the beginning, I was kind of disappointed that only one egg fertilized but when I found out that I had a healthy embryo it restored my hope.
Avatar f tn When I got pregnant, I kept getting menstrual cramps right around the time I was supposed to start my period and after it was late. It felt like I would start literally any minute and like you, I kept feeling wet and running to the bathroom to check. So it's definitely an indication but not a sure thing. You should take a pregnancy test first thing in the morning like clysta said. Good luck!!
Avatar f tn I only get these cramps every other hour or day sometimes and they only last about 15 secs after that I feel fine.
Avatar n tn Just any bleeding that needs a pad to control the flow because you're still in the danger zone and cramps that feel like menstrual cramps its OK as long as it doesn't turn into unbearable pain followed by bleeding but I hope that you have a full term healthy pregnancy
170623 tn?1242664063 Cramping is completely normal and everyone gets it in early pregnancy. I can't really remember but I think it lasted most of the first trimester and then would come and go after that. As for the taste in your mouth is it kinda coppery like blood? If so that is also very normal. Dizziness could be from high blood pressure or anemia caused by pregnancy.
Avatar m tn i had unprotected sex with my boyfriend 2weeks ago(he pulled out), right after i believe my ovulation began. two days later i started experiencing cramps, but my menstrual wasnt due for another two weeks. I usually get cramps a couple hours before my menstrual starts.

Avatar f tn I am 9 weeks and still have menstrual cramps. Bodies have to change a lot during pregnancy!
Avatar f tn Its my first pregnancy and I've also been having those weird menstrual like cramps, I was reading that drinking (even) more water helps. Nice to know I'm not alone on this I was starting to worry.
Avatar n tn I did ! No worries this is normal in early pregnancy unless they become progressively worse and too painful. Mention it to your doc!
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.
Avatar f tn To me, they didn't feel any different. I was prepared for disappointment because I thought my period was about to come. I don't think every woman feels cramping during implantation, just like every woman does not experience spotting.
Avatar f tn why am i cramping so bad? I have menstrual like cramps al day long, no bleeding though. Went to the er and they did nothing told me to call my doctor! I just left my docs and saw a np not my doc who tells me i am listed as a threatened abortion in my charts. Why was i not told of this? Why did she not pull my blood or check on my cervix or even do a ultrasound to make sure the fetus is developing okay? I feel like a guinea pig waiting for a bad outcome.
Avatar f tn I am 18 weeks and have been having menstrual like cramps low in my abdomen on and off, along with discharge daily. (sorry TMI) I've read that these symptoms are normal, but I had low amniotic fluid with my last pregnancy and am just paranoid at this point. Anyone else have these symptoms?
Avatar f tn m 34 weeks with terrible lower abdominal cramps like some of the worst menstrual cramps you can imagine. The pressure is intense. Back pain constantly. I'm so gasy I cannot stand myself. Feeling bloated. The pressure and cramps make me catchy breath when walking or standing. Normal? Not normal?

Avatar f tn Has anyone else had cramps, like menstrual cramps, throughtout the entire first trimester? I never had this when I was pregnant with my first 2 pregnancies, constant cramps, pains, and nausea 24/7. Does it ever stop?
