Ok ladies, those of you who have had more than one or two babies ( yes Tara, that includes you! haahaa!!)

How much more after the first, or second pregnancy did you feel the cramping in the beginning. Not worried of m/c, midwife says it's normal to feel it more, just wanted to know what you all felt! Gosh, I'm only under 6 weeks, and I feel big, bloated, and crampy.....fun times ahead! haahaa!! It's really a blessing, just different!

Blessings,
Amber

Hi Amber!!! I don't know about cramps this time around but I had Braxton Hicks much earlier!!! I started feeling them before 20 weeks. The dr told me that it was normal and that with each pregnancy you feel further along than you really are. Not sure if that helps you or not. Know that I am praying for you:)

Amber!!! I had horrrrrible cramping this pregnancy (pg #6 for me), to where I thought there was something really wrong! It was horrible pms type cramps and I was miserable for quite a while with them. Mine were nothing but regular plain ole pregnancy stufff, thankfully... I had never had cramps in pregnancy before, but I even posted on here for the gals to pray since I didn't know what was going on with my body. I hope your cramping goes away quickly! It *did* help for me to take it easy and drink lots of water... sleep a lot... yeah... those things allllll helped!!!

LOL 'I'm included' teehee

Um, early cramping, uh, no, don't think I've had any. BH earlier, yes, but not 'cramping'. Low fullness and pressure, yes. Heaviness, yes. Flutters earlier, yes. But, nothing I would call cramping.

Sorry, no help there. Jen just went through a cramping phase though, maybe she could be of more assistance.

Ok...so we're totally twins...born miles and years apart...Jen and I LOL
Booger was posting at the same time :p

You guys are so funny!

Hey Amber, I didn't have cramping until about 7-8 weeks but I think mine was more stretching pains. But I want you to know I am praying for you little bean!

Thanks gals!
Had an u/s today and saw the sac with the yolk. Just a bit too early to see much else. Looks good though. Still cramping, but it may be where the baby implanted...or that I was only 8 months PP when I got pg....guess only the Lord knows! :-D

Blessings to you all!
Amber

Yeah, it could just be that you are going to have an irritable uterus this go round... I seem to be experiencing that this time. No big deal, it is definitely something I can live with, ::snort:: I still have a lot of cramping but everything is going fine. :)

AMBER!!! How on earth did I miss this!!! I didn't know you were preggo!!! AAHHHH! I am SOOOOO SOOOO SOOOO happy for you!! Congrats!!

YAY!!! PTL that they were able to see the sac and yolk. Praying for everything to go alright. ((HUGS))

LOTS of cramping ...especially after delivering my first....I was SURE I was going to start my period and miscarry every day the first 12 weeks of my third pregnancy!
If it's any consolation....with my second pregnancy that we lost later on in the second trimester....I didn't have the BAD things...no cramping/bloating/sickness....so I carried the baby a long time, but things with my body were never quite "right" according to how they are with healthy pregnancies for me.....
I relished every desire to puke and every pain I could take with that next pregnancy! LOL
