cramps

I am 6 weeks. Once in a while i get cramps. Their not bad and they dont last but is that normal? Ive read that it could be my uterus expanding but should i be worried?

Very very normal. I'm on baby number 4 and its happened with them all. Cramping is only a worry if it is accompanied by heavy bleeding or red spotting. I had spotting with the occasional mild cramping at the beginning of the pregnancy and I'm now 28 weeks with no issues. Congrats on you pregnancy :)

Also I spotted for the first 2 weeks I found out & was freaking out! Dr says it's normal! I had like 3 ER visits to check everything & it was just me being paranoid! My doctor said "calm down, your fine" lol its normal hun! :)

Yupp!! It's Completely normal! I was going to the bathroom every hour to make sure I wasn't bleeding! Lol I was freaking myself out! Your uterus is just preparing & getting used to all the changes that are about to happen with your little bean! It's Stretching & it's normal! :) I'm almost 25 weeks! I stopped cramping around 8-9 weeks. Everyone is different tho! :)

Everything scares me too, just try to relax and not stress, thaaat's bad for the baby!

Thanks. This is our first baby and everything scares me all of the sudden. My husband tries to comfort me but sometimes just need another mommy!

Yes it's normal.
I cramped early in my pregnancy too, now I'm 24+5.
It is your uterus stretching to make room. You might even experience really mild cramps throughout your whole pregnancy as your uterus grows.
If you see anything like brown or red tinged discharge, or start bleeding then call your doctor.
But don't worry, it's just your body changing for ya babyyy :)
