help I'm worried

I'm 5 weeks and a few days pregnant and I started getting foot cramps that come and go. Im really starting to freak out and its making me cry.  I am a hypochondriac and I have severe anxiety. Im just worried because idk if it's pregnancy related or if somethings wrong. (I google everything bc of my health anxiety) and I read stuff about blood clots. My bf keeps telling me to stop worrying and crying but I'm so scared right now.

I also get calf cramps and foot cramps, it helps to massage them out when it happens and they say to eat more bananas,  I guess maybe not getting enough potassium good luck :)

I have been getting foot cramps and calf cramps since 4 weeks. It's normal. Drink more water throughout your day and stay hydrated. It should help. Also, stand flat footed, keeping heel on floor, and squat forward slightly, pushing knees forward toward toes. It will help to stretch it out slightly.
