Well, I went and checked it out as I was getting more worried. They havent ultrasounded me cos they say its too early at 5weeks and 5 days. they have taken my blood and I have to wait for the results of my hcg levels. I am a nervous wreck. They also said it could be a cyst aswell - very common. It is slightly better today but I feel wobbly. I wish I would feel more nauseas as well.

Yes Im thinking the same thing. At a special time like ours, reassurance is a good thing. I feel a little better thinking others have felt the same but its good to seek advice. My cramps seems to come in waves, and are better when I lie down.

If you're not bleeding and the pain is not real bad then it's probably just the early cramping pains during the first trimester. I was also having the same problem, but it turned out that it was an inflamed kidney that was irritating my uterus. Hopefully everything turnes out to be fine, but to be on the safe side, you should still get that checked out. CONGRATS by the way!!

Me too. I am around 6 weeks and experiencing cramping so I feel like you do. Its horrible. Mine feels like im all swollen. My jeans are really tight etc. Cramping seems to be a normal part of pregnancy but its natural to worry too. If it continues or gets worse then seek advice from your gp or health pro. Thats what Im going to do, even if I feel silly.
