11 weeks and abdomen feels wierd

[gogosteady]

Im 11+4 weeks pregnant and ive started getting some cramps and a heavy feeling in abdomen and backache, when i get up from sitting or lying its like ive got something heavy around belly. Is this just stretching and normal or something i should speak to midwife about. Got 12 scan on the 1st Feb so still a week away xxx

stretching is pretty normal and ive had some lower back pain since 11 week mark too - hb was strong last night so im not worried, however, ring your MW if you are

its more likely to be the pressures of the womb moving up as this week (into our 12th week!) baby moves up out of the pelvic area and starts to bump out. xxx

Thanks hun. I did hear baby's heartbeat this morning so not too worried but just wasnt sure if this sounded like normal stretching. Im still working, as a cleaner, and dont wont to over do it, if it sounded like something else. Seems that there is always something to worry about no matter how small the issue sounds lol! xx

i may be having something similar... feels like i literally have a balloon that is being pumped up where baby is... a pressure from inside!

 

[griffinh]

its weird i cant lie on my front now - its cool how we're all getting to the same stages! xxx

 

[Rosered52]

I'm feeling the exact same way--pressure and tenderness in the lower abdomen, pain in the lower back. It begins!

I got a sonoline B with LCD screen, got mine on ebay for £40 with delivery. I have been picking heartbeat up a bit higher than most and its on the right, but the other day i found it on the left, so think baby is moving around alot more now.
Not sure if other doppler users have this, but i swear that sometimes i feel baby move when doppler is pressed over baby and hearing heartbeat, it feels like a bubble moving, anyone else, or am i going mad LOL!

Kato - Yep a pressure that you just cant get rid of, makes me wonder what its going to feel like when baby is big and moving around
