Is it ok to have brief and occasional cramping at 13 weeks

[Hayleyma2001]

I'm a little worried about it and i was just wondering if it's normal. Please help this is my first pregnancy and I am younge.

I just now read your second question,  Hayleyma. Are you spotting?  (bleeding lightly).  Do you still feel pregnant?  Heavy feeling breasts,  maybe a little nauseous?  

[Hayleyma2001]

No I am not spotting at all. I have discovered that it was round ligament pain he was just growing. Thank u guys for all the help

Ask here,  Haley and you'll get good answers.  You can also go to the pregnancy forum CurfewX posted and get answers - that board is a little more active,  but other moms besides teens will be posting there.

I agree that the feeling of cramping seems to be normal,  and is sometimes even referred to as a symptom of early pregnancy.  If your pregnancy is going well,  and everything seems normal,  nothing to worry about.  You're out of the window at this point where miscarriages most commonly occur.  Best wishes!

thank u so much!!! I am 13 weeks and this is a very new thing for me so I really appreciate u helping and actually responding that really means a lot. and the previous comments told me that I cant ask these kinds of questions on here so where do I go to ask??

[Hayleyma2001]

and also it has been consistant for two days but its not severe so is that normal to have it two days in a row it started yesterday?

[CurfewX]

Yes, this is a normal part of pregnancy.  It's mostly due to your tendons stretching as your uterus begins to expand.  As long as the pain isn't intense and isn't accompanied by heavy bleeding, you can consider it to be pregnancy "growing pains."  

Most of this forum is questions from teens wondering if they are pregnant or what the risks are.  If you're more interested in getting advice during your pregnancy, you might want to join and post in the main pregnancy community here: https://www.medhelp.org/forums/show/152

Thanks,  CurfewX.  Although it does seem that almost ALL posts on this forum ask whether their experience could lead to pregnancy,  the board is also for teen mothers who want to discuss their pregnancies and concerns in a place with other expectant mothers who might have more in common with them than the women on the other pregnancy forums.  So,  general health questions or other concerns by pregnant teens are welcome here!
