Is anyone else experiencing abdominal cramping? Sometimes it scares me because I don't know what's going on in there. I'm six weeks along and until last week I just thought my period was coming. I found out last thursday that I am expecting.

At first I was having cramps really bad, like hold on and double over kind of pain. Now, I am not having any of that. When is your doctor's appt???

Dr.'s Appt...
I have not made one yet. I will have to wait unitl tomorrow. I did however speak to a nurse, who said that the cramping was normal. But I miscarried in january and they said cramping was normal then too. The only difference is that then I was also spotting, which was supposed to be normal too. Come to find out I was preg. With identical twins and that was my first time being pregnant. So now things are really scarey for me. Every cramp I feel scares the hell out of me. But I can't go to the hospital everytime I feel something. I just really need to know what to expect or what types of cramps other people have or had. Knowing that I am not alone is very comforting.

Please try not to worry(i understand it is easier said than done), worrying or stress is very difficult on any pregnancy! If you do not feel at ease,go to the er at least to make yourself feel better so you might be able to find out what is going on.
Let us know what you find out! We are here for you!

I had really bad cramps for both my pregnancies which made believe I was going to start my period but turned out I was pregnant. Even after I found out I was pregnant I still had cramps and I got scared too, but now I know its normal.
