First sign I noticed when I was pregnant with my first. I thought was coming on for a week and never happened so took a test!
Oh thank god, thank you that’s so reassuring! Fingers crossed it’s normal then, my period is due tomorrow so I think once I get past tomorrow maybe I’ll feel better because this feeling is so disconcerting! 🥺 xx
I get these and I’m almost 32 weeks. I’ve been told it’s maybe growing pains or braxton hicks, I wouldn’t worry too much but always seek medical advice if you are unsure xx
Yeah totally normal. I usually get cramps straight from implantation. They'll get more too as things start stretching more etc. I usually find it quite reassuring that there's something going on in there 🥹
Thanks so much, can’t tell you how much better I feel after reading these replies! This is my third pregnancy in as many months after 2 early losses but I’ve never made it this long after a BFP so it’s all new to me xx
Same as ciara, I didn’t take a pregnancy test for ages because I kept saying ‘I’m about to come on, I can feel it’ 🤣 I didn’t even know it was a pregnancy symptom at the time x
@Laura this was me in my first pregnancy 😂 my cycles are irregular and I tested negative before period was due then went on weeks feeling cramps thinking I would come on but didn't! Then got a dye stealer when I tested and FREAKED OUT! We had been TTC for over 2 years
@Becky congratulations, my last pregnancy was a loss too x
I’m 6w2d today and I still get dull aches from time to time! Xxxx
I wrote off this month as had a mix of dull aches and little twinges on and off from a couple of days after ovulation. I got that every month with PMS symptoms and as it turned out, I became pregnant! Still get on and off aches even now at 5 +1 😅
Hey ladies, sorry to revive this post again! My dull aches were on and off for a week or so but have been pretty mild the last week. I’m 6+1 today and it feels like yesterday and today they’ve come back with a vengeance, really uncomfortable dull aching most of the day, I’ve had to take some paracetamol. Have you guys continued to experience it in early pregnancy or was it just in the very early days around when you got your BFPs? x
Mine carried all whole of first trimester and then moved to round ligament pain once uterus popped out of pelvis into second and third trimester
I had this with my second. I generally thought I was coming on but I didn’t. Xx
