About 2 or 2 1/2 hours ago, I had gotten up from my desk and experienced about 15 minutes of extreme cramps and lower back pain, about like the worst period pains I had experienced before.. and I have pretty bad ones. It hurt under my belly button all the way down my pelvic region, and even my legs felt weak and almost like the muscles were sore.. I went to the restroom and wasn't bleeding or anything, which I know is a good sign.
The pain hasn't left but isn't quite as extreme at this point... but when I stand up the back pain is still pretty intense.
Since the cramping hasn't gotten worse and has actually gotten a little better, I haven't gone in.. my MW says to come in if the cramping gets worse and stays for 2 or more hours, or I start having waves of cramps less than 10 minutes apart for more than an hour, or if I start to bleed..

Has anyone else experienced cramping like this after the first trimester? I'm 14 weeks along, I haven't had cramping since probably 7 weeks.
 
I got them about 3 times this week. I think it's the baby/uterus growing. I got it in my previous pregnancy and also turned out to be the baby growing.
 
back has been killing too....i read that the hormones your uterus puts out also causes back aches
