Hi ! Good afternoon. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

Feeling a little bit of pain could be normal in this stage of pregnancy due to mild uterine contractions and the movement of the baby. However, in case the intensity and duration of the pain increases, you might have to consult your obstetrician for a clinical assessment and a possible review ultrasound of the abdomen to see the status of uterus and to know the foetal well being.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
