I am having BAD cramping.

I woke up this morning feeling fine. A few minutes later I started to feel slight cramping in my abdomen and then it got worse. I had my miscarriage and D&C 2 and a half weeks ago. I stopped bleeding about a week and a half ago. This is just freaking me out because this is how the miscarriage pains started. So far it hasn't gotten worse, it's just a constant really uncomfortable cramping in my lower abdomen. I was going to eat some breakfast and take a few advil. Do you think I should be alarmed?

I would take tylenol, instead of advil, I know that is what my Dr told me to take during my m/c and he even suggested it for menstruation cramps.
I have been a bit cautious about symptoms, ever since my m/c, and I tend to play it safe. I would call your doctor, describe your syptoms, and see what he advises you to do. He may tell you to take it easy or he may want to see you.
I hope the cramps go away and you feel better.

I wouldn't be too alarmed unless it continues and you run a fever. I miscarried 3 weeks ago and am still have cramps but they lessen each day. If you do have a fever, even low grade call your Dr. as you may have an infection. My dr was concerned about both so she did an ultrasound to make sure that my uterus was clear. If it is not that could be the reason for the BAD cramping. Good luck with everything. Message me if you want to talk.

Thank you for responding. The cramping subsided after about 40 minutes, it just really freaked me out. My follow up visit with my doctor is July 11th but if it happens again I will be sure to call.

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
