As long as there is no blood, you should be fine.  Your uterus is stretching which is usually the cramps your feeling.

Hi, yes these are normal as its your womb making room for the baby to grow. I only know this for sure as my boyfriends mum is a nurse and she told me, so did the doctor, midwife and google. Unless you cant stand the pain and there is alot of blood you are alright. Hope this helps?
