Q: Cramping...is This Normal?

Ok this is kind of a personal question, but it's worrying me so hopefully I can get some feedback on it....Everytime me and tom "do the deed" I end up cramping afterwards, like light menstrual cramps...And after i'm "stimulated" the same thing happens...Is this normal, can it hurt the baby? I've been really worried, he says it's probably nothing but I can't help but worry myself up the wall about it! Crying or Very sad

Hey

Well i've heard that it can happen because of the "changing" body. Possibly it's from your body changing and yet your doing positions and "actions" that are causing yourself to cramp. I wouldn't worry too much at first but if it continues, i'd bring it up to your doctor.
Love,

Yeah don't worry hun...Same thing happened to me while I was pregnant. Its just your uterus making small contractions...That does not harm the baby in any way, shape, or form. And the small contractions won't induce real labor..Hehe. That's what I had thought!!!

Ok here I go again! Lol i'm still worried, i've been cramping(light but noticable) ever since last night and it doesn't seem to be going away..Is this a normal part of pregnancy? They're not painful or anything, just kind of a nuisance....Ugh I tried a heating pad but that did nothing but trigger a hot flash! Haha you can never win!
