5 weeks?

I'm 17 & 5 weeks pregnant. I've been experiencing cramps that are similar to menstrual cramps. I get nervous bc I know this can be a symptom of the common miscarriage and I want this baby more than anything. Please don't say anything about my age, as it has nothing to do with the question. Is this normal? Is there any advice as to what I can do to prevent miscarriage & what not to do? Thanks in advance.

Hi cramps are completely normal at this stage and throughto pregnancy it's just if your bleeding aswel is more of a worry but you can still have implantation bleeding and that's nothing to worry about x

Sorry you are going through this and I wish the best for you, but if you are miscarrying, there is nothing you can do to prevent it this early in pregnancy. I suggest you go see your OB/GYN as soon as possible.
