Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to HCM,
If you are experiencing cramps after urination especially when you are 3 months pregnant , then it is likely that you may be suffering from a urinary tract infection which needs to be ruled out with a urine routine/microscopy and culture. It is suggested that you visit your physician for a urine culture examination,
