How long do early pregnancy cramps last?

Question

I’ve been having some light cramps but mostly general discomfort in my lower abdomen, internal discomfort when I finish a wee, or pulling feelings as I move or change position which I understand can be completely normal and nothing to worry about. I’m currently 5w 4d and have had these symptoms for about 10 days. I feel very delicate in my abdomen all the time and worry about moving to quickly or twisting / rolling over in bed. Has anyone felt the same and how long into the pregnancy did it last?

Answer

In my first pregnancy pretty much throughout the entire pregnancy. It's round ligament pain. It hurts whenever baby is growing rapidly, which happens especially in the first and third trimester.

Answer

I had cramps like a period the whole first trimester

Answer

I had bad cramps till around 10 weeks and now at 16 weeks I’m getting growing pains they aren’t like menstrual cramps but their uncomfortable.

Answer

I had extreme cramps (went to ER thinking it was for sure a miscarriage) everyday until 16 weeks. Then I had Braxton Hicks daily the rest of my pregnancy 🤷🏼‍♀️
