Pains

[Angelica]

Since late afternoon, I've been getting stomach cramps & lower back pain.
The back pain feels exactly like what I normaly get when AF is here/due!!

I'm a little worried now has anyone else experienced this?
Am wondering if I should ring nhs but theres not much they'll advise I'm sure....

PS: Am 15 weeks in a few days

i had a lot of back pains friday night, all in my lower back and sides and it lasted for ages. most of the girls said it normal to have some cramps and pains and not to worry. im still gonna get it checked out tho when i go to the doc on tuesday. could be a uti or maybe even BH but im ahead of you by 5 wks.
in your case im thinking just stretching pains. totally normal

possibly streching pains i still get them now

At 15 weeks I really wouldn't worry too much. Back pain is common and so is cramping all the way through so I think it's probably just normal growing pains. As long as you're getting no unusual discharge it should be fine. I'm getting period type pains again and I'm 26 weeks.

I had a similar thing at 14 weeks and went to see my GP. I described it to her as feeling like AF was about to start and she felt my belly, checked my temperature & listened to babies heart beat but said everything seemed fine but to come back if I was still worried in a few days as I did have a bit of a temperature.

You could try seeing a doctor tomorrow if you're worried & still in pain. It could be a urine infection.

Back pains and cramping are both common during pregnancy. If either gets to bad though I would go ahead and call the NHS, to make sure everything is ok and for your own peace of mind.

NHS direct are really good if you're worried about something, Ive rang them a couple of times with some really silly questions and theyve always been really nice and reassuring

I get a bit of backpain but paracetamol usually cures it pretty quickly I always just assume if its anything serious it wouldn't go away quite so easily.

Hope you feel better soon!

I'm noticing some clear cm today when I wipe...
Does that sound normal?

I've noticed more cm since becoming pregnant, I think it's quite normal.
