Question about cramps/pain - six weeks.
First off - I am SO SORRY for all the questions lately! I hope I am not too annoying. Since I haven't told really anyone yet I don't know where to turn nwith my questions.
I am six weeks today so starting my 7th week. I have had really minor cramping off and on since BFP but much lighter as the weeks have gone on. I know from what I have read on here and from my dr.'s office this is normal.
Here is the thing - since yesterday i have been getting a weird "cramp" off and on - in my lower right side. its centralized there and it feels a litte different then my other cramps because its a little sharp (not THAT bad though) and it keeps coming back in the same place. It lasts for a second and then is gone but then i get the same thing like 30 min or so later. Is this normal or should i be worried?

Re: Question about cramps/pain - six weeks.
I had these at about 8 weeks. It was ALWAYS happening (I remember cuz I was on my honeymoon). It was more of a pinching pain than a cramp. It was VERY annoying. I had to usually take a walk for it to stop. Forget lying down, that's when it was the worst.
BUT... if you are worried, then call your doctor. That is really the only way you'll be put at ease.

Re: Question about cramps/pain - six weeks.
Hi! Ask as many questions as you like!!!!
I was having the same thing at 6 weeks... I'll be 14 weeks tomorrow. It is either 1 of 2 things (IMO) 1. it just can be the uterus stretching or 2. gas.
It had stopped for a while on me and has started again today. Although, it's a sharper pain today than before, on the right hand side. I just keep drinking a lot of liquids. Hope it subsides soon!
Congrats by the way!!!!

Re: Question about cramps/pain - six weeks.
You and I are exactly on the same timeline. I was 6 weeks yesterday. I am having the same kind of pain- and I just assumed that it was the uterus stretching since I think I read somewhere that this a big week for the baby- I think it doubles in size this week!

I have been experiencing this since about a week before I got my BFP. I am glad to see it is normal.

I'm only a few days ahead of you and started having the same feeling. For me it was gas and constipation.

Re: Question about cramps/pain - six weeks.
Ive been crampy too, very mild though since before BFP, Im 4wks now and its still crampy. I can speak of 6wks, but my friend who just had a baby complained of the same thing at around 6wks....Dr said it was just her uterus stretching. I totally understand the anxiety though....every little twinge I have Im terrified Im going to m/c
