I had something similar when I was around 7 weeks but everything was fine although I was worried at the time.

I experienced the same sensation during my first pregnancy. Daily for the first 10-12 weeks at least. I am now 6 weeks with baby number two and am feeling it again. Mostly to the left of my belly button, but sometimes on the right side too. Never actually hurt, but just a new feeling that totally scared me at first because I was certain it meant something bad was going on. My doctor told me the pinching and pulling was from a corpus luteal cyst that forms in the empty follicle after ovulation. Mine was confirmed via ultrasound but the doctor pretty much knew what it was from my description. Don't worry too much (easier said than done I know) but call your doctor just to be on the safe side! Good luck!
