Stomach pain in pregnancy
Stomach (abdominal) pains or cramps are common in pregnancy. They're usually nothing to worry about, but they can sometimes be a sign of something more serious that needs to be checked.
It's probably nothing to worry about if the pain is mild and goes away when you change position, have a rest, do a poo or pass wind.
But if you have stomach pains and are worried, call your maternity unit.
If the unit is not available, call 111.
If you're less than 20 weeks pregnant, you may need to contact your GP or an early pregnancy unit, depending on what's available in your area.
Harmless stomach pains, which can be dull or sharp, may be caused by:
- ligament pain (often called "growing pains" as the ligaments stretch to support your growing bump) – this can feel like a sharp cramp on one side of your lower tummy
- constipation – which is common in pregnancy (find out how to avoid constipation)
- trapped wind
Urgent advice: Call your maternity unit immediately if you have stomach pain and:
- vaginal bleeding or spotting
- regular cramping or tightenings
