Abdominal cramps combined with diarrhea are typical for intestinal infections and are probably not related with the actual pregnancy. If cramps and diarrhea continue you can visit your GP for an examination and to diagnose the cause of the problem. Intake of liquids during diahrrea can prevent dehydration.
