Does your stomach hurt in early pregnancy?

Question

I've just found out I'm pregnant, and sometimes I feel some mild cramping or discomfort in my stomach area. Is it normal to have a little stomach ache in early pregnancy? I'm worried if it's a bad sign.

I just delivered my baby last month, and I remember having mild periods-like cramps in the first few weeks. It's usually normal stretching, but keep your doctor informed.

Damini Sarkar · Answer

A little stretching pain is common, but don't hesitate to visit the clinic if it hurts too much. It's better to spend on an early scan for peace of mind than face complications later.

I personally had mild pulling sensations in my lower abdomen during my first 2 months, which my doctor said was just the uterus expanding.

Mishti Sahni · Answer

Mild cramping can happen as the uterus stretches, but if it's severe, don't ignore it. I had to be very careful with my health due to gestational diabetes and learned that any unusual pain should be reported.

Please check with your gynac immediately if the pain is sharp or if you have any bleeding. Even mild pain should be reported to be absolutely safe in early pregnancy.
