I’m terrified right now. I’m having cramping that start last night and had been coming and going since. It’s like period cramps, but also felt in my glutes. It’s also on the side where the baby is implanted (switches sides) and my lower back. I’m not sure if it’s normal. I’m 6weeks 6days. Wondering if I should go to the hospital if it continues.

Are you bleeding? I have cramps almost every day.

You can always call the emergency department at the hospital and ask to speak to a nurse and see what they say.

I’m 6 wks and am experiencing that too. I was told it’s normal unless it’s really intense or accompanied by bleeding

Very normal. I’m 6 weeks and having cramping just like yours. I was nervous too but what my nurse told me is as long as there’s no heavy bleeding. Your uterus is just expanding making room for the baby ! Totally normal 💕💕💕

I’m 6 weeks pregnant and I’ve been having really bad pain in my stomach it comes and goes too I think it’s just the uterus stretching for the baby

I'm 8w2d and I experienced some light cramping. More like light pain. Let your OBGYN know. If you have light bleeding that would be an issue. Good luck mama!
no bleeding! And I still feel my normal symptoms. Just cramps are painful.
Thank you mamas. This app makes it easier than googling.

I’m 6 weeks and have on and off bad cramps all day. I had an ultrasound this morning and everything looked normal so I think you should be ok! But you know your body best!
I’ll do this
Thank you

I went to the emergency room a couple days ago and they told me it was just a cyst that was from the baby that will go away on its own

I googled it cause mine got worse too and it said it might be Braxton Hicks

I experience that at 4-6 weeks I’m currently 7. My doc told me it’s normal, unless it’s painful so bad ur hunching over and you’re bleeding

Just adding on to the other’s confirmation that it is normal. I had my ultrasound today and my nurse shared that cramping that feels like period cramps is totally normal and to only be concerned if they keep getting worse and worse pain wise.
Thank you everyone for the confirmation
