why? (2 questions)

1.  Next week I'm going to the doctor to confirm pregnancy and all that fun stuff. But yesterday, one thing lead to another and...well, you get the hint LOL. After the fun, about 10 mins later, I had to pee. Which is normal, but then literally every 10-15 mins I had to pee again. I did like 6 times. Which I NEVER do. Then I started getting a little crampy. (they didn't hurt, it was just that one cramp that lasts a second then it's gone, so it didn't have time to actually hurt). Has anyone else experiences this?

2. Monday night I started getting cramp like feelings in both my legs a little above my knee. Tuesday when I woke up it hurt when I stood up and when I took a few steps but after I was walking it stopped. Yesterday it only hurt in the morning and now it doesn't hurt at all. (Side Note: I know some women get leg cramps due to their menstrual cycle, however I never have).  Were these leg cramps due to pregnancy?

1. Cramping and light spotting after sex is normal during pregnancy.
2. When pregnant, your body releases relaxin which relaxes your joints so your pelvis can open up during delivery. This starts in the first trimester which is why pregnant women are more susceptible to strains and other joint issues.
So if you are indeed pregnant, you may want to inform your Dr for a more knowledgeable opinion, but I don't think you should stress out bc of these things.
