Cramps

Just a quick question.... I am 8 weeks
pregnant and I have been having some lower
back pain. It almost feels like cramps
but not really. It's like a pulling
sensation. Almost like someone took
their hands and is pulling out on my hips
from either side. I'm not quite sure
what it is. It is very sporadic and it
is very mild. I am not having any
blood. But I heard that cramps are a
cause for concern in pregnancy. Does
that go for back pains as well?

pain

All of your ligaments and tendons soften
while pregnant--so it can allow for the
spreading of the hips for delivery. It
sounds to me like your having the
spreading feelings already. Usually
later in pregnancy women experience these,
but since the softening begins as soon as
hormones change I guess it is also common
to feel this at any time. I began to
experience this around 26 weeks and it
continued everyday for 2 months.
But I felt it right over the hip bones.
Not exactly in my back--nor in my stomach,
but on my sides. But im still sure this
is what you are feeling by how you
describe it.

i've heard that cramps lead to
miscarriage.....

Cpramping is normal in prgnacy it's the
legment streching for your belly to grow
and back pain I normal to it goes along
with being pregnat..Iam pregnat with my
fourth baby every thing will be okay with
the baby..If so worried call the doctor or
go to the er..Or call ask a nurse if you
have one in your area we had one for 20
year know they took that away from
use...Good luck and every thing will be
okay.. Ps dont stress over it...

i had mild cramping too in the beginning.
It felt like period cramps. When they say
to be concerned about cramping and to call
your doctor, they mean painful cramps
(usually accompanied by bleeding). I
wouldn't worry. Good luck!

Thanks so much for the help ladies.
Yeah, my cramping is really mild and I
haven't had any blood at all, so I guess
i'm worrying myself to death for no
reason... Maybe I should take a breather
and enjoy my pregnancy :wink: hehehe
