I jotted them down in my journal because they were so strong, they literally woke me up. My LO is 21 months and healthy as can be. So cramping can be normal. But just to be safe, i would call the OB if you're concerned. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80294 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 11:53:56 +0000 anbanan15 80294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm glad the call to the doctor helped reassure you! I hope some added water does the trick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80267 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 11:33:54 +0000 Darling 80267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know this is easier said than done, but try not to stress. Not to be gross, but it could be something as simple as gas pains. Your body is flooded with hormones and that does weird stuff to your digestion sometimes. Even if you do have some spotting with pain, that doesn't always mean something is wrong. But I agree, if you can call your doctor, do so if you're concerned. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80254 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 11:12:08 +0000 hellobeeboston 80254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>thanks for the responses everyone --- i spoke to my doc's office. based on questions she asked ( did i have diarrhea, is my abdomen sore or hard, do i have cramps now, am i bleeding -- all NOs).... she thinks i'm ok. she said to definitely drink more fluids - that could have been the issue - i don't drink as much water as I should, and i had that bad night sweat.... so hopefully that was all the excitement for me for a few weeks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80212 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 09:26:49 +0000 winniebee 80212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cramping can be super normal, especially in early pregnancy. But it never hurts to call to ask your OB. : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80204 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 09:13:14 +0000 Mrsbells 80204@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cramping can just be the uterus stretching I had this a lot. However you should still call you OB just to be sure because no spotting doesnt necessarily mean everything is ok. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80201 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 09:07:42 +0000 Tidybee 80201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it sounds kind of normal...especially since they went away and there's no spotting. It could have just been your uterus stretching. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80195 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 08:56:21 +0000 anbanan15 80195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That sounds like an excellent plan! You will feel better after better to a doctor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80192 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 08:53:40 +0000 hellobeeboston 80192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks ladies! You are making me feel better - I am going to call for peace of mind and will let you know . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80188 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 08:45:02 +0000 mamabolt 80188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cramping is normal during pregnancy, even though it's so scary! But don't be afraid to call your doctor, they are there to talk you though all the weird pregnancy stuff! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80181 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 08:28:22 +0000 anbanan15 80181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A call to your OB will help ease your mind and provide you with the most sound advice. Don't ever be afraid to call them no matter what the question! That's that's their job and I'm sure they would be more than happy to address your concerns!</p> <p>I had some strong cramping that prevented me from standing upright, but it was later (~16 weeks) and they said it was round ligament pain. I still called their office upset, but felt much better after speaking with the doctor and knowing that it was normal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80177 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 08:11:17 +0000 chopsuey 80177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would call your OB if I were you. I called my OB for everything :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-week-bad-cramps-for-15-min-only#post-80175 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 08:09:21 +0000 hellobeeboston 80175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hey all .... Not sure if I am over thinking this. Last night I woke up at 11 drenched in sweat -- figure its a night sweat and normal... </p> <p>Then at around 1 am I woke up with really bad cramps - much worse than I have had since finding out I was PG... I almost felt nauseous from the cramps, they were making me sweat all over- I got up, got some water, and then shortly after they completely disappeared.</p> <p>I had no blood at all... Havent had any spotting since i got pg. Is this normal? I am only 6 weeks, this freaked me out... Feel normal again this morning.. </p> <p>Should I call my doc? Thanks! </p>
