Question

Is cramping normal at 20 weeks of pregnancy?

Answer 1

Jay - I don't think cramping is normal.  I had sharp pains in my side and back from the growing and weight but, not cramps like cramps we get during menstruation.  I say if your sure it's not something that was eaten to upset the stomach and the cramps are strong and real... go get checked out asap.... better safe .... than.....

good luck

Answer 2

Yes! Your uterus is streching to fit the baby! I wouldn't worry unless there was bad cramping and bleeding!

Answer 3

NO...It really depends on the type and severity. You need to be vary cautious. If they are anywhere near being regular and wont go away after puting your feet up and resting for a bit. Your chances of being/going into preterm labor always goes up with things like smoking and such.
