6 weeks pregnant, are these pains normal?

13 Replies

I've had back ache & cramping from before I even took my pregnancy test a couple of weeks ago. I've had to take paracetamol a couple of times but have had no spotting or bleeding. This morning I seem to have what feels just like period pain. Should I be concerned? X

I’ve been getting some twinges but apparently it’s something to do with your tendons changing shape. Good luck with it all xxx

It's easy to worry but it is actually very common to experience aches and crampy pains in early pregnancy as it is your womb expanding. As long as there is no bleeding it is usually normal to have pains. Congrats on your pregnancy by the way! Not long I see until your scan. Let us know how you get on.xo
