Cramps at week 13...none previously

Hi all,

i'm 13 weeks tomorrow and this week i've started to get period like cramps that last about 3 minutes. I never used to get these. Is it normal?

  • I would say it is probably stretching pains. I get them still at 26 weeks. When you get them try and lie down with your feet up, they should soon go. When is your next MW appointment? It's worth a mention when you speak to her.

  • thank you.

    my next appointment isn't until mid- feb (the 20 week scan). i did not manage to have my 12 week scan image but i heard they're not that important anyway unless you want to find out if your baby has DS.
  • Hi Hun, I would definitely get in touch with your midwife and maybe get them to refer you for a scan. Just for peace of mind if nothing else. Probably nothing to worry about but better to be safe. I think that all scans are important to check fetal development and that everything is moving along as it should be xxx
