Help :/

Hi, I am 5 weeks pregnant today with my very first baby. I'm 20 years old, just recently married and I don't really have a mom to go to for this kind of stuff-

I just found out I was pregnant about 24 hours ago exactly and for the past 2 days I have been having some pretty intense random pains, almost like menstrual cramps but worse. Is this normal? Should I be worried?

Congratulations! Like the other ladies said, as long as youre not bleeding other than the implantation bleeding you and baby r fine. If you havent yet, you should start taking prenatals, try to drink your 64oz of water a day, moderate exercise, and plenty of rest! :-)

I remember I had cramps also around that time. Your body is making room.for your uterus to start enlarging. As long as your not bleeding everything should be fine. Congratulations its a wonderful thing. I'm 37 weeks and almost done :-)
