Bad cramps??

[EmberRose]

For what it's worth, I had AWFUL cramps at 5 to 6 weeks with my DD. Like thought I was miscarrying, called the nurse.

It was gas! Your body has a a rough time adjusting intestinally during those early weeks, and progesterone reaaally increases gas while your digestive system slows down and can't release it as easily.

Full disclosure, I had eaten like a bag of spinach too. DON'T do that.

Thank you for your response! I think that I am just so much more aware this pregnancy. I worry a lot but the gas make total sense so thanks!

I had that with a couple of my pregnancies. It's really shocking when it happens but it's just one of those weird things.

So glad to know that this is normal. Hopefully it doesn't go on forever lol!

No it was about 2 weeks with one and a little less with another one. Really awful!
