Stabbing pains & sharp twinge in uterus normal during pregnancy? Posted: 11-18-07 15:48pm
I'm 10 weeks and 5 days pregnant. All day
today I've been having stabbing pains.
They're very sharp and uncomfortable. The
first one was really intense to the point
I doubled over. Then I'd have like this
sharp twinge in my uterus a couple of
times every 5 minutes. It's slowed down
now but I still get the stabbing pains
every once in awhile. Is this normal? Is
this the ligaments stretching? (P.S. I am
pretty small 115 pounds) I was told cuz I
was small that it's my uterus stretching
already but I think I need more
reassurance.

I don't recall having those type of pains
in my first trimester... I have some dull
pains now but nothing bad. I agree with
the others, you may want to call your
Doctor.
