Cramping after over exertion? 9-10 weeks

[josephine3]

So i had a busy day shopping yesterday and was on my feet a lot - including running for the bus in both directions! Last night in bed i had some pains which worried me, quite painful cramps, this morning they're lighter but still there.
Anyone experience this? Is it normal or shud i be worried? Do u think i shud take it easy today or carry on as normal? I unfortunately had more shopping planned!

I think it's your body's way of telling you to slow down. It's also not used to carrying a grapefruit (uterus) around for that long so of course there is going to be some aches and pains. I get this aswell if I go walking or stand for too long. Never get it if I take it easy. To be in the safe side I'm choosing to relax and take things a bit easier now.

Hiya

I remember you from last time (our daughters were born a day apart) - and I stopped BFing at 14 month too!!

Anyway I do think it's a sign you should ease up - same thing happened to me last time when we moved house I had quite painful cramps at the end of the day. Subsequently spent the weekend on the sofa drinking water and taking it easy and it never happened again.
