How long should cramps last in early pregnancy?

[Soopa4]

I'm about 5 weeks pregnant and have been having cramps for the past week. No bleeding, just cramps, but they often wake me up in the night (somewhat like the feeling I have when I'm getting my period). This is my first pregnancy and I've heard these are normal at first, but how long should I expect them to last? Weeks? Months?

Im having period like cramps and my breast are extremely sore!! The cramps have been going on for about a week and im 5 days late. I have had diarrhea for the past 2 days, and some vaginal discharge with no odor or itching. Ive been waking up extremely early in the mornings needing to urinate and nausea comes and goes through the mornings and evenings.. My fiancee and i have had unprotected sex very often and ive come to find out that we did three days out of my highest fertility days, and ovulation was just the day after.. We have taken no precautions. How likely is it for me to be pregnant?

So glad to read that this is normal. I have also been cramping & I believe I'm 4-5weeks. I keep worrying that something's wrong. It feels just like I'm gonna start my period.

Yes sounds to me that you are preggo!! I am now a little over 6 weeks and experiencing the period like cramps everyday at work, while sleep , etc, I take Tylenol to subside the pain. My cycle was a week late as well accompanied with bad cramps, by the next week I took 3 test came out positive!

I'm pregant for the first time and I've been having pains in my belly and back for at least the past 2weeks on and off and now its starting to really scare me but when I went to see the doctor he said its because my baby is sat on the bottom of my belly ready to come out already but the baby needs to be moved everytime he keeps going there but I think its he's comfort zone cause he keeps returning there everytime I move him

I'm just entering my 7th week of my very first pregnancy, and the cramping is annoying. Not as severe as say, period cramping, but it's mild and off and on all day. I have my first dr's appointment in May, so I'll be able to ask more detailed questions then about what's going on, and what's going to change!

Hi earlier this week I spotted for like two mins it was a light pinkish color, however my period isn't due til next week. it wasn't even enough blood to fill a tampon or panty liner I only seen it when I went to wipe. I haven't had any bleeding since, but since then I have been sleeping a lot lately, I get on & off headaches, I have mild cramping, my breast appears to be getting swollen but they aren't sore, I have been having lower back pain, & I even have become queasy from time to time, no vomiting though. could I be pregnant or is it just pms?

My husband and I have been TTC for a year now. My last period was on Aug 24, but my periods are irregular so i have no idea when i ovulate. Its )ct 24th exactly 2 moths late but i have been cramping over 2 weeks now. I usually cramp a week before i get my period...im still cramping. I did have light pinkish bleeding and brown blood. I havent taken a HPT becuase i am scared itll be negative. So is it normal to cramp this long?

I'm 6 weeks on sat and I've been having cramps from last Friday. I went to docs thinking it was something else and she suggested I take a pregnancy test. I did two and both were positive. My cramps are everyday, come and go, quite severe and now last between 5 & 10 mins in length, they get so bad that I vomit too. Could I request an early scan to make sure everything is normal and baby is ok? I'm freaking out coz it's so bad. Mine also wake me up at night, no medication as doc said it's not advisable to take anything this early on.

I am 5 weeks pregnant (found out yesterday) and began getting the slight pains a few days before my ppt, they have been on and off and I assumed they were weak period pains.
How long should I expect these pains to last?

I'm 11 weeks pregnant now and I've had mild cramps since week 5. Made me nervous at first, but just went to the doctor a week ago and everything is perfect. It's just the uterus growing. It varies for every woman. Some may have it on and off throughout the pregnancy, some for just a couple weeks in the beginning, and some may not experience it at all (lucky ones!). But not to worry if it's just mild cramps (does feel just like cramps during a period). If it's severe, or if you're simply worried about it, go see your doctor. Peace of mind will solve it! Good luck! :)
