First Pregnancy Cramps

Hi, ladies! I'm 5 1/2 weeks pregnant and I continue to get period-like cramps without any spotting. My doctor says this is relatively normal,but it's very uncomfortable! It feels like I've been about to get my period for a month straight. Has anyone else experienced this during their pregnancy and if so, how long did it last?

Yes, with this pregnancy I've been experiencing the same thing. With my first pregnancy I didn't have cramping but this one has been non stop

Hey! With my first I had cramps for about 2 months on and off,it was not too bad. Now pregnant with my second and have horrible cramping just like you are describing. I am assuming its normal, very uncomfortable but bearable. I did have some minor spotting one day though. Not too bad.
