This happened to me. It came and went intermittently. At one point the pains felt like cramp. A hot water bottle helped.

I had this in every pregnancy (3) it's the baby bedding in. Might be worth reading up on ectopic pregnancies and getting familiar with the symptoms just incase. As all 3 times I was scanned as the pain was so bad they weren't sure if I was having an ectopic pregnancy.

Bedding in pains are part of pregnancy and things like paracetamol, baths, hot water bottles (warm not boiling) and rest seem to ease it a little but it can get pretty painful.
