When people say slight cramping during pregnancy do they mean…?

When people say slight cramping is normal during pregnancy due to things moving around to accomodate the growing uterus what exactly does it feel like? and how early do you get those feelings?

It feels like mild pressure! No actual pain! Your baby is growing and so is your uterus! When you baby moves from one position to the next he or she is stretching! That’s where the discomfort comes from! Don’t be alarm! This is normal!

    It feels alittle worse then cramps when your on your period. It’s the growing of your body to be able to carry a baby

    i had those cramps before i even knew i was pregnant. in fact, it was one of the things that clued me into the fact that ’something wasn’t normal.’ they felt exactly like period cramps. like the ones you have the day you get your period but mine just didn’t go away.

    and i still get them occasionally, not every day. :)

  5. yay! im pregnant Said,

    yeah the pain is like period pain;… the pain for me was not as bad as period pains though because they only lasted a few minutes at a time.. im 11weeks and hardly get them anymore… before i found out i was pregnant i was getting these pains so thought my periods coming but never did!!

    Its comparable to menstrual cramps, maybe a little more uncomfortable. I am 13 weeks pg and lately I have been getting cramps in my uterus here and there, mostly I can feel them while I’m lying down.
