Cramping
Posted: 07-14-05 21:39pm

Hey im 15 weeks pregnant.

I was just wondering, how much cramping is too much cramping?

I've not been able to go to the toilet for a week and have been really constipated, would this cause the cramping?

My cramping doesn't hurt but I suppose its just really annoying and it sometimes worries me.

I've also started feeling really heavy in my lower stomach, is that me feeling the baby in there? :)

It Could Be Both!

Hey,

it could be one or both!.. My sis who is having a boy this time around (2nd pregnancy) she said she felt his sitting right down on her pelvic bone as soon as 13-14 weeks... But her doc also said that it was normal cause it was her second time around and all the muscles and stuff are all stretched and such!....

On the other hand it could also be, that you are just constipated.. The one thing I know for sure is if you are taking marterna.( the vitamins) they make you constipated.. (or at least they do for me!) and my doc has told me that many complain about the same problem...

Talk to your doc, and see if he/she would sugest you taking a fiber pill or something.. (my doc told me to take medamucil once a week to counter re-act what the maturna does!)

anyway hope that helps a little..

Best of luck with the future baby!

Lor~

Well I actually take yakult,

i dont know if you have it in america but supposedly its not supposed to be like a laxative, but it makes me go to the toilet at least 3 times a day, so im sticking to it.

Yea its weird
sometimes my stomach feels totally normal, and then sometimes its just like someone is sitting on my lower back and stomach, and sometimes it makes my thighs tingle.

Could that be the baby changing position at all?
