Hello,
While mild abdominal cramps and dull pain are normal during pregnancy as the uterus makes space for the growing pain, severe pain lasting for hours is a cause of concern and should be immediately addressed.
I would advise you to get yourself checked by a gynaecologist as soon as possible who may also do a sonography to check the well being of the baby.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
