A member asked:

Is it normal to have menstrual like cramps during the second trimester at 14 weeks?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Yes: A cramping sensation can occur in any month in pregnancy. Of course what is the difference between this cramping and threat of miscarriage. Difficult question to always answer. Benign cramping in 2nd trimester is constant and not cyclical. It feels like constant pressure. If you're worried at all, though, see your doctor and ask for a cervical length ultrasound to confirm cramping is benign.

Cramping in Pregnanc: Nope. This is unusual and something that should trigger at the very least a phone call to your obs office.
