moving heavy objects!! :(

I was moving some furniture around earlier today. I'm only 5 weeks so I've just been doing regular things. Now that I've settled down I'm having bad cramps. :( hope I didn't do anything wrong

Just relax and take it easy. The cramps could just be your bodies way of protecting the baby from the lifting.
As long as it's not accompanied with blood, you should be okay. If the cramps become really bad or there is blood, call your OB.
No more lifting (:
