4 WEEKS PREGNANT AND CRAMPING BUT NO SPOTTING

Hello to all,
I just found out that I am 4 weeks pregnant. I am very happy but I am cramping really bad but I am not bleeding. I went to the hospital last night because this is not my fist pregnancy I had a missed miscarriage back in July I went in to hear the baby's heart beat and they told me that I had miscarriage at 6 weeks. Anyway back to my question I went to the hospital last night and they looked me over and told me that I was ok because I was not bleeding but they took some blood from me to see what many HCG levels were and it was at 39. So my questions are.
Should I be worried that my levels are 39? And I am still cramping on and off  but no bleeding should I be worried?

I think it's just the normal cramping at the 4th week, nothing serious. But you always can go to the clinic if you're worried.

I am also experiencing mild cramping. I have lost three now so far. First in 09 @ 20wks, she had Anencephaly. Second at 7 wks, missed miscarriage. Third at 8 wks., normal miscarriage. So, needless to say...I am very nervous.
Just to touch on faint positive tests, at four weeks, that's completely normal.  It should progressively darken as days go by. Goood luck to all!

Hi I am 4 weeks and 1 day today if it was calculated right for sure. I have been having upper abdominal pain for at least two weeks and the last few days it feels worse. Its very uncomfortable to stand and still hurts when I lay down. Feels like food poisoning it hurts so bad but I'm not sick or constipated at all. I'm not sure if I should go to the hospital or what I should do. I miscarried once 9 years ago and I have an 8 year old so its been a while for me. I do not know if this is serious or not but hate to take a chance. I don't really feel right and don't remember feeling this way the first time.

I am 3 weeks and 6 days and I went to the emergency room last night for UTI and they said my HCG levels were low because they were a 190. I  am scared because I have had a little cramping not much but I have had 2 miscarriages already this year. And I havent miss my period yet.

at early stages of pregnancy cramping is normal, youre body is going through a massive change, ur starting to stretch etc, as long as youre not bleeding try not to worry!! when i was pregnant with my first the cramping was just like really bad period pains and i would cry sometimes but i didnt bleed so there was nothing to worry about, dont stress as this will make you so much worse, and dont think about misscarrying! you need to think positive and be happy!! the more stress you put on yourself the more stressed the baby is! xx

I am also in my 4th week, haven't seen the doctor yet because they usually want you to wait a little while.  I had a miscarriage 12/5/2010 and now I'm so nervous, but trying not to be because I don't want to have that happen again.  I have been cramping some, too, but it's not bad and it's not all of the time, and I've had no spotting.  Have the nausea and the sore breasts and headaches, and I know some cramping is normal, so I'm just praying and keeping my fingers, toes, eyes and legs crossed!  Babydust to all!

Hi all Im 4 and a half weeks pregnant, i had a misscarriage last november and i am experiencing cramoing pain again, i went to the doctor this morning to confirm my pregancy as i only found out over the weekend, well to say the least he was very nice about it he told me i would more than likely miscarry again because the pains, and was jus told to wait and see, well i couldnt wait and see so i went to the maternity hospital and they done a scan but couldn see anything because its too early, so now waiting for my blood tests to come back to see what my hormone level is...

I am 6 weeks and 1 day pregnant and have been noticing brown and red blood and small clots when I wipe since saturday on and off. I have been having mild cramps since monday. I have an emergency scan booked for saturday morning but I am so scared and just want to know if my baby is alive or not. I miscarried twins back in august. They actually died at around  - 5 weeks but I didnt find out until I was 10 weeks. I have seen quite a few positive comments on here but also a lot of bad ones, I really dont want this to happen again.

Hi, i had a missed miscarriage september 2010. I had cramping @ 8 weeks but was told by A&E that it was just a urine infection!! ( I knew it wasn't) but pain stopped and no bleeding I didnt find out id lost baby until 3month scan.
Anyway I found out today that i am pregnant again 4-5weeks. Ive got light period like cramping pretty much the last week....but 2 days ago I woke upat 5am with severe pain & fainted. This has only happened once but i cant help but worry that im having another miscarriage with no bleeding. Does anyone know how common miscarriages are without bleeding? & whether anyone has fainted due to cramps? Im trying to be positive but also realistic...Any comments welcome Thank you x

Found out I was expecting two weeks ago this coming Sunday. Prior history of 1 ectopic pregancy in Oct 2003, right tube almsot ruptured as I was diagnossed with a miscarrage and 3cm cyst. My Ob saved my tube. Later had a histopelpingagrahm. Turns out my tube is almost 90% blocked.
I had a miscarrage in Oct of last year. mild cramping then bleading - So I'm familar with the symtoms. At the present everything is normal, nausa, fatigue, smell scensitivity, sore breats etc. - I started experiencing a slight dull pain or full feeling in my right side ribs to lower abdomin. I went to doc. today were I had a TV ultrasound my results showing a sac in fact in the uterus but it looks to be the fetus is only about 4 weeks - I should be about 6 to 7 based on my last period and all the symtoms I've already been experiencing. Also, after the ultra sound my pain has increased but now from Ribs to groin. I have another appointment thurs to have my second round of levels tested. Has anyone who has had an ectopic experienced these typs of syptoms but went on to carry full term? Any insign appreciated
