I don't know if it's the same as me but when I was about 8weeks to about 11 weeks I kept having this little pain in my legs. It was mostly my right leg but sometimes my left. I felt it for no reason sometimes and sometimes I felt it everytime I stood up from a chair. They were little sharp pains and then sort of like a cramping sensation. It would last a couple of minutes and then go away. I havent had it since.

As for the pressure in your abdomen... It is normal to feel pressure, and little pains or something similar to period-like cramps in the beginning. Everything is changing in there and your uterus is stretching.

Oh thanks sooo much!! You have made me feel so much better... I guess I was concerned because it was only on my left side and it wasn't crap but pressure..... I really do hope its normal and i'm just worried and nothing else.

Thanks again!!

You're welcome!!

Lots of people ask about the cramping and pain. I know how scary it can be. I had all different sorts of cramping, especially in the first 10 weeks and I was so terrified of every single pain I felt.

Just take it easy and gets lots of rest, it really helps!
