Cramps?

im only about 4 weeks along. I have been having a good amount of cramping. It feels almost like period cramps. & before you think that it might be a miscarriage, I really don't think that it is that because I was pregnant last year & had a miscarriage so I know exactly how that feels. & it's not how this feels. Also there is no bleeding either. Is this normal? I'm so worried about it, but my doctor won't see me until I'm 8 weeks, so the only way I can get checked out is if I go to the Er. Which I would really rather stay away from if possible.

Completely normal ladies! I almost didn't take a pregnancy test bc I was convinced the cramping meant I was about to start, but it never happened. Your uterus is already starting to grow and make room for your growing baby. As long as it's not severe, persistent, and there's no major bleeding you're fine! Congrats

I'm 5 weeks and have also had moderate cramps this week. I think it's OK unless the pain is severe &/or you have bleeding.
