Really intense cramps at 6 weeks

[Lissy Loo]

Hi Girls,

I was after some advice.

I was woken up again last night with really bad cramps, kind of like really intense period pain. It lasted about 10 mins and then started to go down. I went to the toilet and there was no blood and still isn't this morning phew. I was just wondering if any of you have experienced the same thing? They only occur at night and i get woken up out of a dream. I must admit it freaks me out. I have been worried because my boob soreness seems to have decreased although its probably all in my mind. I don't have bad nausea its just mild and nothing really.

Hurry up June 10!!!

I got cramps with all of my pregnancies & so far have got 2 healthy kids & I'm 10 weeks with number 3.
I had a miscarriage in 04 & was bleeding with the cramps.

Cramping in pregnancy is very scary though.

Hi Lissy,

I had on and off cramping early on. It freaks you out doesnt it.

I'm praying that its your little bubba settling in.

Hey,
I had really intense cramps right up until I was about 12 weeks I had many ultrasounds they suspected an eptopic pregnancy at first but my doctor just said I had an over sensitive uterus!!
Nobody tells you how painful pregnancy can be!!
Wish you the best of luck!!!

Hi Lissy, so sorry this is bothering you. I have also been getting some intense pains, but I have worked out I am constipated! When I do eventually go to the loo, I feel so much better. Just a thought, but try to eat lots of fibre and water and increase the frequency of #2's and hopefully that might help xx

Thanks girls. I have only had 2 episodes of these types of pains so hopefully they are normal or even bowel pains like you say Shy. I did feel a little constipated at the time so maybe you are right. I guess if it was something to worry about it would be occurring all the time and it isn't

Oh Lissy i am so so so SO bloody happy for you, this is one of the happiest BFP's I have read of all year! You truly deserve this and I hope little Loo is just snuggling in nice and tight.

I was the same as shy, I would get really intense pains (and still do today) and I also put it down to needing to the loo! I am not sure about you but I lose track of when I have gone because my mind was, and still is, on other things to do with the pregnancy. And those first 12 weeks are sooo stressful, you just want to get through to that point and know everything is ok! I hope that's all it is, and if there is no bleeding then that's a good sign. But if in doubt see your Dr, who cares if you go once a week?? Peace of mind is so much more important!

Take care, and I look forward to reading about your journey :hugs: And Little Loo you listen to all your friends on BH, you get yourself nice and comfy for the next 34 weeks please!
