is it normal to feel crampy

at 12 weeks?
I don't know exactly what I am feeling, so it's driving me nuts.
It's probably gas, but I can't help but feel a little panic with each twinge, pulling feeling going on in my belly right now.

Re: is it normal to feel crampy

cramps mean your body is preparing itself for pregnancy. as long as its not accompanied by blood, its normal. if the pain gets too much id let your doctor know.

I got crampy at around 18 weeks because I wasn't drinking enough water.

I think it's normal..is it really unbearable, or just enough to get your attention? Just make sure to drink plenty of water! Dehydration can def make you crampy!

Re: is it normal to feel crampy

it's not painful, just noticeable.
I don't want to be one of those women who call the doctor every day.

Plus I have my ultrascreen on Monday, so I'm nervous for that also.
My last pregnancy at the ultrascreen is when they told me the baby stopped developing and that I had to have a d&c.
