cramping

I just recently discovered I am four weeks pregnant.  I have been cramping for about two weeks now. This is my first pregnancy and I was curious if cramping this often was normal?

PrettiD I hope you talked to your doctor about the bleeding. It's impossible to get a period when you're pregnant because you're not ovulating, BUT you can still get bleeding around your period time. Sometimes it means there's a problem, other times it's just bleeding and nothing to worry about. If it's really your period coming though, you're not pregnant.

I cramped a lot during my 4-6 weeks too, along with some pretty bad tummy ache. But doctor said everything looks good in the ultrasound and we even got heartbeat at week 6, so I guess it's normal. I had one bad cramp/ache beginning of the week and then all is calm after that, too calm, make me worry if things are ok in there. Go no spotting so pretty sure it's just me over thinking it.
Going back to the doctor next week and going to do another ultrasound just in case, I will be 8 weeks then.

I cramped since 4weeks until atleast 11weeks. On and off but lasted quite a while. Scared me a lot. But now at 13weeks I get them every blue Moon. As long as there is no bleeding you shouldn't be too concerned because its probably your uterus growing
