Movements

I never know when I should be worried or not. She's not one for moving much, my baby. I've had regular scans and checks to check her weight and size as she's on the smaller side due to the the lack of room to grow. All the scans and my checks etc have always been fine.

Cramping at 10 weeks

Has anyone else experienced constant cramping at 10 weeks? I’ve not had any lower abdominal cramping until now and it has been non stop (dull ache and then the odd sharp pain) for about 35 hours. Early pregnancy don’t seem to be concerned but it’s hard not to be worried, especially as it has been going on for some time
