Unfortunately, given your past medical history, you are not safe from miscarriage at any point in your pregnancy; you can miscarry at any time during pregnancy. Having “cramps” is very general term. Cramps can originate from the digestive, urinary, and/or genital tract. Cramps that originate from the uterus are dangerous for the fetus. Cramps and vaginal bleeding (spotting) during a pregnancy are signs of possible miscarriage.
