Yes - it’s just stretching especially when it’s at the side of your groin/uterus! If it is a proper pain then speak to midwife but it should be a discomfort rather than a pain?
Yes it will be round ligament pain as everything stretches xx
Oh yea, the lovely cramps. 🙄 I did, even now at 21weeks occasionally. Anything too painful.i don't think is considered normal. But as you haven't mentioned that I would worry, a little cramping is normal. X
Thanks all! It’s not super painful just uncomfortable and I’m overthinking everything!

When i was at that stage of pregnancy i had some cramps and all sorts of pains and they said was normal as your body stretches to fit everything baby needs!😂🥰 cramps and some pain is normal ESPECIALLY in the groin as your pelvis shifts - but bad cramping or tightening (if you are in real pain not just a bit of discomfort) is when you should be concerned and ring your midwife/urgent line if continues for long period of time xxx
