yes honey very normal....mine was severe...even when i got up to do some walking its like it just got worse...i cried and tried to take my pain meds it didnt help... so i used a massage and heating pad with a warm rag on my belly it helped alot....it was my moms idea...my back pain was the worse because they removed my hiatal hernia....the worse ever!! but you should be fine soon it lasted me a full 30 days
