Pains/cramps

Call him-he'll call you back-or one of his colleagues will-then you can describe what you're feeling and put your mind at ease! The first 20 weeks-the baby is sort of taking up all the space they're given-then after-they start growing beyond-and in my case, I had my own zip code. Overall, the uterus will grow 500 times its size-which , believe me, can be felt! Millions of people around the world, that don't even know you, are praying for you and your precious little baby-you are surrounded by love! xoxo!

you are in a big growth spurt time right now and your ligaments are stretching. That will cause some occasional pain and cramping. As long as you don't have any bleeding/discharge or something like that, it's completely normal.

The pains you are feeling could possibly be ligament pains caused by the muscles and ligaments stretching and loosening to accommodate the growth of the uterus. Do you notice them at any time in particular? Mine always happened when I made a sudden move, like getting up from the couch or turning real fast. And they could be painful...but they didn't last long. More of a pain that kinda caught you by surprise...like a back spasm or something.

Be sure you are hydrated and not on your feet too much. Otherwise, it sounds normal.

I had plenty of cramps...Just think what your uterus has to go through during pregnancy...all that stretching and all the things going on in there...I think some pain and cramping is expected. My belly hurt my whole pregnancy, I just think it was tight - just like other muscles get tight.

If you're not bleeding and not obviously miscarrying, I wouldn't worry too much. I had a normal pregnancy, but lots of discomfort.
