cramps!!!!

I am 15 weeks and have had bad cramping all day (I work on my feet all day) the cramps are low and feel like menstrual cramps. (No bleeding or spotting)  I also have pain in my lower back. This is my first pregnancy and I don't know how much cramping is normal?  Or when if ever its a problem.  Any advice would be awesome!  Thank you for listening :)

I know this is an old post but same thing is happening to me now.  Same situation, 15 weeks today and cramping more when I am on my feet, constantly bending over, etc.  Did the water help with the cramping and back pain?

Agreed. I noticed the more active and on my feet I am....worse it gets. Worth seeing if its the same for you. To add more, it was explained that our hips are like a suspension for our uterus and needs to adjust to accommodate. :) let me know if the water helps.

Thanks for the reply and advice!  You know now that i think about it I haven't had as much water lately as I was earlier on. I should try that and see if it helps! Hope your pain goes away quickly.  Its no joke!

Having same issues....talked to the nurse day before Xmas and she said round ligament pain. Keep up on your water get plenty of rest, and put your deet up and relax. It it hard when you work on your feet.  Maybe they will let you sit?
