extreme cramping!!

I already had my first appointment with confirmed pregnancy at 5 weeks. As of today I'm 5weeks 6 days. I have my first ultrasound tomorrow. I know all the usual symptoms But last 2 days I've been in extreme pain that feels a lot like menstrual cramping only time ten. It gets better after either peeing or tylenol. But I want to know what could be causing it... maybe a food I'm eating? Anyone with experience with this please help?

If you are having problems pooping than it could be that. I got bad cramps early on to and after going the pain would stop

Google round ligament pains... I would get them sometimes out.of no where and they would take my breathe away until I sat down... As long as your.cramps aren't followed by period bleeding with.clots it's just your body adjusting to.making a baby :) hang in there.

Yes, lower abdomen. But it doesn't come softly rather it comes on suddenly and I also have weakness in my arms and legs with dizziness and breathlessness.

Is the pain on the lower abdominal because I have been cramping like crazy since I found out I was pregnant but I hear its normal that means your baby is growing
