I didn't find out for sure I was pregnant until I was about 5 weeks. I had period like cramps for about 3 weeks after that. It's completely normal. The Dr told me the only time to worry is if there is blood with it.

Same here. I'm 5 weeks and have had cramping since my period was due. It is happening less though this week compared to week 4.

Im only 13 1/2 weeks but from weeks 4-8, i had menstrual like daul cramps in my lower belly and lower back. I was really scared. I was back and forth at the doctors and they told me everything was okay it was normal and my uterus was stretching and that it's  normal to cramp around the time your cycle comes on. I listened and since 9 weeks, no more cramps Just really bad nausea all day. You will be okay. Congrats!!

I was too! I'm 8 weeks now and still have cramping here and there. But did not feel any with my first. I looked it up and sometimes some people feel them a littl e more.. it's usually just uterus stretching or embryo implanting. It should be fine but def mention it to Dr:)
