Anyone ever have what feels like menstrual cramps?

First off, I want to say that I'm really, honestly, not concerned. But occasionally, I'll have a twinge that really reminds me of the way I knew my period was about to start. It makes me think of RRL tea, and then I remember that I"m pregnant, and it can't possibly be my period. I don't know *what* it is, but I wondered if anyone else ever feels anything like that. (Oh, I don't feel the twinge in my tummy, I get my cramps in my left thigh. Which makes me more than a little weird, I realize. :))

Yes, I get PMSy cramps every once in a while. I had them all the time early on, but now it's just every once in a while. Sometimes the feeling accompanies contractions, but other times I get the crampy feeling and my uterus is soft. That's interesting that you get your twinge in your leg! I don't think I've ever heard of that before!

Yep, I get them all the time. Very real AF-ish cramps. For me, they do NOTHING. However, my SIL and a good friend both ended up with 35 weekers after a day of "just cramps." I wouldn't want to go early, but I am a little jealous that that was "labor" for them!!

I don't really think that I've been too crampy this time, but with my first I had them for a little while, but was just told that it had to do with the uterus stretching or something like that (it was more of a mid-pregnancy thing for me I think).

I was having these at work the other day. I just started Month 7, so I was freaking out. They went away, though, so I'm not worried. My Doc said that if I started bleeding then to go to the hospital, but that other than that, the body does all sorts of strange things during pregnancy.
