abdominal cramps

by nlf, Dec 19, 2003 12:00AM
Hi my name is Natalie and this is my first pregnancy and durning my 4th and 5th weeks I had some mild cramping I was just wondering if that was normal.  I'm in my 8th week now and Everything seems fine but besides My breast being a little tender I have no other symtoms.  I wwas just wondering If anyone else ever had anything like this.

Chances are that cramping was just your uterus stretching. I am in my 6th pregnancy (4 first trimester m/c) and still felt those familiar pains in the first trimester with most of them. As long as it isn't accompanied by bleeding all is usually well.

This will continue throughout your pregnancy as will some other aches and pains. If you ever feel like something just isn't quite right, call your OB.

Thanks Andrea,
That's what I thought it was.  Being my first pregnancy Everything worries me.  I'm sure after I have my first full prenatal exam I'll lighten up a bit.
