More cramping with second pregnancy?

Tris
I'm currently 21 weeks and have been experiencing a lot more cramps and lower back aches/cramps the last two weeks. My cervix was closed and placenta looked good, but I didn't experience cramps or regular Braxton hicks like this with my first pregnancy. I had a c-section with my toddler...not sure if that could be adding to the pain. Anyone else have this the second time around?
