I am 10 weeks pregnant and found out when I was 4 weeks, because I had really bad cramps that kept me up at night, but the doctor told me this was normal. I get the odd cramp now and again but it's not as bad. I'm still really worried about miscarriage though.

Hi everyone
I am about 4 weeks pregnant, tested positive Tuesday last (9th Aug), home test. I have been cramping really bad for over a week now with bad lower back pain, it’s been worse than normal period pain and I have been spotting for over a week too, it started last Friday morning. I thought it was implantation bleeding to begin with because it’s brown blood, but I never expected it to last this long. And it has been heavy enough to wear sanitary towel one of the days. And sometimes seem fibrous at times. Can anyone please advise me if this is normal, keep thinking I’m miscarrying. This would be my second child and I never had any pain or spotting at all with my first.
Thanks so much. I would really appreciate any info at all xx

Hi relieved to read on this fab site that mild stomach cramps in early pregnancy are normal (Phew!)

This is the best site I've joined or looked at... and that's quite a few!

Expecting baby in May 2011. Very excited. Twin boys already age 13. Bit worried about age as I'm 41 but I'm fit and youthful...

<a href="http://www.thinkbaby.co.uk/members//"><span style="color: #0167cc;">Roisin Mc 2</a> hi, I'd get yourself checked out at docs just to be on the safe side. All the best . My cramps are usually worse at the end of the day for some reason, they aren't too bad though. x

I disagree with the using of a wheat bag or water bottle for cramps in early pregnancy. You shouldn't use any heat on your tummy in early pregnancy as it can seriously hurt the baby.

Hi Simone, I foudn that cramps and twinges are really common during my pregnancies. It could be baby growing which is causing a bit of discomfort or if you have any fibroids etc could be due to that.

If you're not having any red or heavy bleeding then I am sure it's nothing to worry about but always ask the doctor to put your mind at rest!

Best of luck with the rest of your pregnancy!

So glad I read this because I am 4-5weeks pregnant and today I had a abit of blood in my knickers browny coloured. Rang my doctor an he has advised me to rest for 48 hrs so I'm guessing he's thinking if it's owt serious it would be continuously bleeding also been having those tugging pains and was worried thinking it could be something serious but this has put me at ease. Haven't bled anymore since the one time this morning so hopefully was just a one off. :) just want a normal healthy pregnancy x

Cramps in early pregnancy are normal unless it comes with bleeding.

Hi everyone, I should be more clued up on this after having 3 children already but I'm so confused, my last son is 8 now and I know my body has changed a lot (I'm 34) but my period was 18 days late so I did the HP tests all negative, then my period came and it started pinkish then I had some normal red blood for a few days but not heavy like it usually is, then it went brownish, after it finished I have had uncomfortable tummy cramps everyday since and feel a little nausea pretty much everyday, headaches and sleepy, my tummy is a little bloated but its hard to tell after 3 lol, and I have a serious case of the munches ha ha, any advice greatly appreciated, by the way Merry Christmas xx

Hello all!!
I am due on in 5 days time and was feeling very crampy last week quite low in my abdomen
I put it all down to periid pains/ hormones and have been having tummy cramps all week
Again as my period is very due I assumed it was that although I did think maybe the cramps were implantation pains
My husband and I did have unprotected sex on my fertile dates so this was always in the back of my mind
I have four children and don't remember having tummy cramps before finding out i was pregnant although with my lady u did have period symptoms ( back ache grumpy etc)
I did a HPT on fri but it was neg ( obviously taken way too soon)
I did another early this morning and I am 2-3 weeks pregnant with no 5!!!!

I am over the moon
I have looked into tummy crampy in v early pregnancy and apparently it's quite normal - not always A worrying sign !!!
Your body is changing even in this early stage
Hope I have helped-
Baby dust to all who are trying xxxx
