Hi I'm about 7 to 8 weeks pregnant. This is my first pregnancy...I'm experiencing minor cramps I'm also experiencing a minor sharp pain on my lower right side of my stomach. I'm wondering if that is normal or do I have to seek medical attention right away, because I don't have a doctor to go see yet.

I'm 8 weeks and Ive been having some pains on right side I asked my doctor and she said it's just uterus stretching n my baby is attached to right side of uterus which could be causing the extra cramp like pain on that one side

Is the sharp pain happening regularly? I've had some random sharp pains, mostly on one side, occasionally on the other side.

Maybe you can try calling around and see if you can find a doctor to see, and ask them about the pain if it is normal or not, should you be concerned. I know when I called to schedule my first ob appointment, they told me to call if I had any questions.

Even if its only on one side of the body where the pain is coming from? And for just a couple of weeks.

I'm 7w and I have cramps too, I have since about 5/6w. From my understanding it's just your uterus stretching. As long as there is no bleeding, try not to stress..As far as the sharp pain.. do you think you could just be having gas pains? If not, and you feel you should go to the doctors go. You know your body better than anyone, even if this is your first. Congrats and goodluck.
