Is it normal to experience cramping during the first couple of weeks of pregnancy? Should I worry?

as long as it is not severe cramping i think you are okay. I had slight cramping here and there. That is supposed to be your uterus stretching and growing. I wouldn't worring hun.

I have literally just asked the same question- I'm 4 weeks and starting getting cramp last night- just like a period but no bleeding- Apparantly it's normal so long as no bleeding- glad to hear others are in the boat! How far gone are you?

I'll be 5 weeks this Monday. I have started having cramping right after I got a positive test. I'm glad to hear others are getting it too.

I am also about 5 weeks pregnant and experiencing cramping. It is not severe, but it is uncomfortable and last on and off throughout the day.

QT - March 1

i am also in the same boat as you robin...i am due for my period on monday and my husband and i have been trying to conceive. I know it's too early to take a test but i feel a lot of symptoms such as cramping(different from menstrual), nausea, frequent urination, b___st tenderness. Is it too early to be having symptoms?? We would have conceived one 1/2 weeks ago. Please help me!

I have had cramping since just a little before my pregnancy, and it's still going on off an on... I does go away when I lay down... The first time it happened I ran to my ob but every thing looked fine. I am not worrying about it until I have bleeding... *praying not to* It could be a number of things... gas, gallbladder (which I had before) even though your gallbladder is higher in your stomach, it makes every thing hurt. If you can, when you feel pain, just lay down and get some rest.

I am 9.5 weeks. I had light - mod cramping from 4 weeks (right when I was supposed to get my period) and even now I still have some, but it kind of faded after 8 weeks....every thing was perfect at the last U/S and I go again tomorrow so wish me luck...good luck to all of you and congrats on your pregnancies!!!

YES, definatly - I had strong cramps for the first month or even more... Like menstrual , but for me was stronger and VERY uncomfortable.

so glad to hear everyone else is getting period pain like cramping as well. i was convinced i was losing the pregnancy. I am 5 weeks.

yeah, cramping is normal unless it has you doubling over in pain. i've been cramping since week 5 and still do and i'm on my 9th week. my doctor said it's just my uterus growing.

Hey I am so happy to hear what you guy's all have to say. Off and on since about 5 wks I have had cramping. I am 11 1/2 weeks and today I feel like I do when I am going to have a heavy period. I hope everything is ok!!!
