Mild stomach pain in early pregnancy (during the first 12weeks) is usually caused by your womb expanding, the ligaments stretching as your bump grows, hormonal changes, constipation or trapped wind. It may sometimes feel like a ‘stitch’ or mild period pain. It’s is probably nothing to worry about if the pain is mild and goes away when you change position, have a rest, do a poo or pass gas.
If at all severity of pain increase, then you should consider getting usg done
