Pregnancy Info HOME

its just pain from your uterus expanding from your growing baby. Its normal. you can take tylenol for the pain if you need to its perfectly safe for pregnant women. if the cramping is unbearable see your doctor asap!

I am so relieved to find this. My clinic just confirmed it today that I'm 5 weeks pregnant and I've had mild cramping since Friday. This is my 3rd child, but my youngest is 10, so I think at this point my body is just starting over. I'll drink my water and relax about it, thankfully the cramping isn't on one side, it's on both and in my back like pms cramping, but not as horrible.

Actually, after thinking about it, I had cramped and spotted a little at 5 weeks with my son. I feel better about it now.

I am 4 weeks pregnant, and have had on and off cramping. I have had moderate cramps (more annoying than anything) all afternoon and this evening. I have also been lightly spotting. Should I be concerned?

spotting is common in the early weeks of pregnancy.so it is normal. if your spotting never goes away or turns into bleeding consult your doctor. it is best that you dont do heavy lifting during yourearly weeks of pregnancy

Wow it is scary to think that i was one of the first to write in this thred when i was 5 week pregnant. My princess is almost 2 years old, trying now for number 2 hehe!!!! Cramping is perfectly normal, just like the period pain you would normally get when due on, except you dont come on as your pregnany. Mine lasted for 2week after my period due date.

Phew! This is my second pregnancy - first child 3yrs old - and I just found out I'm pregnant, so we're 5 weeks along. I've been having menstral type cramping for the last week or so and was getting really concerned! I hadn't had any cramping in my first pregancy so was completely taken aback by this! Glad to hear/read that it is normal... thanks for the rea__surance!

hello i did a test yesterday am i am 4 weeks pregnant. for the past 2 days ive had really strong period like cramps in lower pelvic area, tops of legs and lower back. i actually feel like im going to come on my period but when i wipe there is no blood. I had pink mucus yesterday twice but nothing since. Has anyone else felt like this. It feels like my insides are going to drop out :-(

So happy I found this site..I have been cramping im just 5 weeks being cramping today and yesterday, happy to know its normal. Can anyone help me, since before i found out I was pregnant I have serious heartburn just wondering if anyone has any remedys :)

Curious that you have heart burn so soon into the pregnancy - maybe just the position your uterus has found itself - check with your doctor/ midwife if it concerns you!! But I found that in my last pregnancy that for 'instant' on-the-go relief of heartburn that the Gaviscon-chewable tablets helped! Mayb also adjust your diet - exclude bread which can increase acid in your stomach and therefore worsen heartburn. Hope it gets better and just enjoy the pregnancy and take it easy - most things that are frightening are just pregnancy-related - like lately I've had nose bleeds [not bad ones] and that is normal - everything swells a bit even the bloodvessels in your nose!! Take care.
