Cramping??

[justme__]

I am (what i believe to be) 3 to 4 weeks pregnant. Due may 14th. I would have gotten my period today, but obviously i wont. I have been having cramping, for about a week now.. is that normal? Anyone else have cramping too? It feels like mild menstrual cramps. =/ Doctors appointment tomorrow, but I am just worried.

Its too early to see anything in your uterus! My RE said at least 6 wks, but he waits till 8 cuz he likes to see the HB. Don't stress out over it yet! Stay positive:)

Hey guys. I went to the doctor for my ultra sound and they couldn't find anything in my uteris. They think its an ectopic pregnancy, and I may need to get surgery. This is a horrible thing to find out. ]= I will find out on Friday whether I will actually be a May mommy or not. I wish everyone else good luck.

I find this on another forum

"Pregnant women can have some light cramping early in pregnancy. The cramping is often like light menstrual cramps through the lower abdomen or on one side or the other. The cramping is often a result of all the changes that are occurring in the uterus. The uterus is experiencing change as the implanted egg begins to grow and develop.

Some light cramping may also be from the small cyst that can develop on the ovary at ovulation called the corpus luteum cyst. A small cyst forms in the spot on the ovary where the egg pops out before making its journey to the uterus. This cyst then produces progesterone until the placenta has formed enough to begin producing its own progesterone. This small cyst can cause some discomfort for women in early pregnancy."

Hey guys. I went to my doctor today and she said that because my cramping is lasting so long it doesn't sound normal but it could be. She ordered an ultrasound for me for tomorrow to check my ovaries and stuff to make sure that there aren't any cysts causing the pain or anything like that. To Rocky.. I don't think you have anything to worry about. Spotting / light cramping is normal around the 3 to 4 week mark (when your period is usually due) and can be caused my implantation. I didn't have any bleeding, but I have heard that this is normal. The best person to ask would be your doctor though. I would get in and get checked to make sure everythings ok! I was confirmed today at 4 weeks and my due date is in fact May 14th!! I wish all of us good luck! yay

did you also have some spotting? I think I'm about 4 weeks now, and I just finished about 3 days worth of pink and brown spotting. Not to mention ridiculous cramps. This is all a good sign right
