My scan is next Monday. Everything seems to be well today, it was just really odd. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-weeks-nothing-during-the-day-awakened-by-bad-cramps#post-2520556 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 17:15:38 +0000 LCTBQE 2520556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>this happened to me around 7-8w--woke up with excruciating, period-like cramping in the middle of the night, and it REALLY scared me. just like you, no bleeding and it went away after about 15 minutes. it was *very* different than the light pulling-stretching cramping I got almost every day in the first tri. I told my OB about the incident at my scan a few days later and she said the fetus looked fine so she wasn't concerned, and it only ever happened to me that one time. hope you're done with it, too :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-weeks-nothing-during-the-day-awakened-by-bad-cramps#post-2520550 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 16:58:59 +0000 hellobeeboston 2520550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My first pregnancy I remember waking in the middle of the night twice with really bad cramps that only lasted 10-15 min, then that was it for the most part except for some dull cramping on &amp; off. All was OK! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-weeks-nothing-during-the-day-awakened-by-bad-cramps#post-2520521 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 15:10:46 +0000 DesertDreams88 2520521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know you're in Canada so healthcare protocols are a bit different, but could you get betas or an early ultrasound since there's a history of loss? I'm NOT saying this will be a loss, I just think it might help your peace of mind. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-weeks-nothing-during-the-day-awakened-by-bad-cramps#post-2520460 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 12:46:19 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2520460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cramps could be caused by a lot. Even constipation </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-weeks-nothing-during-the-day-awakened-by-bad-cramps#post-2520459 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 12:44:35 +0000 avivoca 2520459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine did, but I had a UTI that was causing me to cramp/have back pain. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6-weeks-nothing-during-the-day-awakened-by-bad-cramps#post-2520434 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 12:02:57 +0000 stiletto_mom 2520434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is this normal?</p> <p>I was awakened last night by really bad cramps. I ran to the bathroom and sat for a few minutes. Nothing. I lay down and after about 15 minutes, it went away. I was generally reeeeally uncomfortable with waves of cramps through the night. Also bad back aches (but I have a retroverted uterus, so I don't know if that's related).</p> <p>They seemed to have stopped this morning but I'm super nauseous. I know cramps are common and normal during early pregnancy, but is it normal when it wakes you up?! </p>
