Well it depends on many things sweetheart, one would be how far along you would be and so forth. But it is common in early pregnancy as its the uetrus getting all ready and prepared for a growing baby. So long as it is not accompanied by any bleeding it is quite normal!
Cramping during early pregnancy is usually a sign of ligaments stretching as your uterus grows. This is normal.

If the cramping is severe, and is accompanied by a mass on ONE side of the lower abdomen (early pregnancy only), this is a sign of a serious condition called ectopic pregnancy which requires immediate emergency medical treatment.

Hello. Yes, you certainly can have abdominal cramping during early pregnancy. For a lot of pregnant women, this can be one of the first symptoms they will experience. A lot of women refer to it as bad periods cramping without the period or PMS. Yes, you can still have cramps when pregnant. They are often caused by Braxton Hicks or "practice contractions" or simply from thr streching of the body from the growth of the baby. If they are frequent, or more than mildly uncomfortable, you should, at the very least, call your OB and pose the situation to them.

I had pains and cramps for weeks after my period was due, and the pains felt very much like the mild cramping I get just before my period starts. I was actually pregnant - although I was half expecting my period to arrive any day! Apparently it is not unusual at all. Take a home pregnancy test, and if it is positive go and see a doctor. If the pains are quite strong and concentrated on one side it can sometimes be related to ectopic pregnancy, so check it out with the doctor.

They can be. Cramping can sometimes be felt during implantation, and spotting(light bleeding) is also fairly common around this time. These two things together can sometimes lead women to believe they are not pregnant when they in fact are. If you've been having unprotected sex and have a lighter period than normal, it's worth doing a test. If you know you are pregnant and you experience cramping & bleeding, seek medical help.

Hi.

During early pregnancy you can experience abdominal cramping which feels like your period is about to arrive. Painful cramping is not normal during pregnancy and any type of pain should be investigated by your Doctor.

Yes. Many women experience cramping as a result of the uterus growing and stretching to make space for the growing unborn baby. If cramping is very painful and/or accompanied by bleeding, you should go to the hospital straight away to get checked out.

Some cramping is usually normal due to the stretching of the uterus. But not if you are bleeding as well. Talk with your doctor.
