Thats reassuring!! feel better now!!!

Aslong as they're not stabbing pains, and you're not bleeding, I'd be sure you're okay

Completely normal, they are stretching pains. Happened to me early on too. The doctor said to be concerned only if they became severe and/or were accompanied by heavy bleeding.

Welcome to the forum and congratulations!

Congratulations and welcome to BNB I had a few aches and pains for a week or so but they were due to stretching ligaments.

If you do have a concern, do call your doctor, even for peace-of-mind
