I am six weeks or so along, and have been experiencing light cramping. Is this normal or should I be trying to get in to see a doctor sooner then the 14th of january. The cramping is like period cramps but not nearly as severe. Normal????

Cramps are completely normal! It is just your uterus stretching to make room for the baby! As long as they aren't painful and followed with bleeding, you both are fine! Congratulations on the pregnancy!

Thank you for the quick response. And for the best wishes. The cramps are very mild, but being policystic I am very concerned every time they start. You have eased concern, thank you.
