If you are cramping...try eating fiber!

Cheyenne

Hi ladies, I am just browsing the posts and I see a lot of women worried about cramping (which is totally fine, you're allowed to be worried about it.) I just wanted to throw in my two cents. Last Friday from 3 pm and all through the night I had really bad cramps on just my right side, I didn't ever have cramps during my first pregnancy so I was worried. I honestly though it could be an ectopic pregnancy, if it wasn't a weekend I would have called my doc. But I was like, maybe it's just gas, so on Saturday morning I got Fiber One bars and some Raisin Bran, ate two bars and a bowl of the cereal, and it really got things "moving" if you know what I mean. The cramp was gone in just a few hours. I have been eating some source of fiber once a day now and haven't had any cramps since!
