Feeling stressed though I'm sure it's nothing. Today I've been having cramping, like IBS pain low in my belly mixed with some heart burn pain. For the first time in weeks I'm not constipated but also haven't been today.
As soon as I search for cramping this kind of things comes up : What are the red flags in the second trimester of pregnancy?
Abdominal cramps, with or without diarrhea (may feel like menstrual cramps)
Has anyone else had this?? Doesn't feel like ligament pain and now I'm stressing that it's not normal.

I’ve had this recently, I texted my midwife and she just told me it’s perfectly normal & expected and to try and keep ontop and manage the pain with paracetamol but if it becomes unbareable give triage a ring and they can check you over, I did this when I was 15 weeks and they were able to give me some codeine which worked a charm, I think the pain has something to do with the overall stretching and growing of your body because I didn’t hurt much until I started to really pop out and the past few times I’ve had this cramping I’ve realised in the next following days I had deffo gotten bigger

@Louisa thank you! It's almost like period pains so it makes me feel worried! Will have to check size tomorrow!! X

genuinely feels soo much like period pains, ide almost forgotten what they felt like aswell 🤣 but like I said if it gets unbareable go to the triage and they should be able to do something, even if it’s just peace of mind

@Louisa thank you ❤️❤️
