I haven't had cramps. I'm 31w5d but my sister in law who is 25 weeks just expierenced cramps and her doctor told her to take tylenol and a warm bath and lay down for awhile.  They went away but they said if they are still happening tomorrow set up an apt.  I would give your doctor a call since it's Friday to make sure they don't think you should come in.  Cramping can also be a sign of early labor so you will want to make sure that's not what it is before the weekend.  Good luck!
