Pregnant and not sure if I'm flaring....

I am currently 14 weeks pregnant and am wondering if I'm flaring.....I went into my pregnancy in remission through diet and probiotics alone. Over the past week I've started to have lower left abdominal pain, but that's it. Not D, no blood or mucous, no fever, nothing except some lower abdominal pain. I guess I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this and what they did. They don't want to do a colonoscopy on me since I'm pregnant....so how do I know if I actually am flaring? I know that sounds like a dumb question, but I of course would want to know if I was in a flare so I could take care or it but I don't want to take meds unnecessarily. Thanks.

Yes, there are a lot of aches and pains in the pelvis during pregnancy. Your ligaments are very stretchy right now, and you should be careful if you are an active person not to overstretch.

I agree with Stef, this doesn't sound like a flare.

Check out 'round ligament pain.' It's very normal in pregnancy and is due to the ligaments stretching as your uterus grows.
