i don't know whta do she means by double down, but i think it is too early for you to have lower abdominal pain, the baby is too small right now, any way you could ask your doctor.

I had lower abdominal pain when I was five weeks. My doctor advised me that it is perfectly normal its just the uterus walls stretching and making room. Hope this helps! :D

what i said is doubled over. that means bent over in half due to stomach pain. some cramping is perfectly normal, but if it hurts bad enough to be bent over clutching your stomach you need to see the doctor

I had severe lower abdominal pain for my entire first trimester.  It felt like the worst menstrual cramp you could think of.  I think its fine.  Clear it with your doctor.

I hate to tell you this but I had really bad cramps and lower abdominal pain at 5 weeks and I lost my baby.  I was 13 weeks but my baby stopped developing at 5 weeks... so I don't know what to tell you.  Talk to your doctor, have him do some blood work!

I'm also 5 weeks and having cramping.  Not doubling over, but definitely quite uncomfortable!  Your uterus is growing, and ligaments are starting to stretch.  With my first pregnancy I had cramping all through the first trimester, it even got worse around 12 weeks with the weight of the uterus getting to be so much.  Check with your doctor, but it is normal.
