Rolling Cramps

Im 5w 1d today and ive been getting cramps since my missed period. They feel like sharp pains in the lower pelvic area, and last for 5 seconds at least 10 times throughout the day. Doc tells me to call her if i bleed, which thankfully i have not. My first us is in 1 week. Anyone experience this?

I was the same way. Couldn't believe I was pregnant because my cramps were so bad and constant I was convinced I was getting my period. Some were so bad I'd double over and end up in tears. I guess its just stretching and egg placement. Im 11 weeks 3 days and no cramping anymore. Maybe a slight one here or there but thats about it. They go away. Hang in there.

It's normal I'm on pregnancy number 5. Your uterus and muscles are stretching.

Yup! Apparently totally normal. I'm 6 weeks 2 days and they're still happening but not as frequently. Also a first time mom. Good luck!
