This is our second time being pregnant which unfortunately the first one ended with a chemical pregnancy. My question is that is it normal to have cramping at 4wks? Sometimes the cramps are stronger then others. Also, if i just lay down and don't move it doesn't hurt like if i get up and walk around, is that normal? I'm freaking out that this will be another CP. Did you experience pains during early pregnancy? (going to have 1st beta drawn tomorrow) Thank you for any advice!!

    COMPLETELY 100% NORMAL!!! I freaked out just as you are. Things are gearing up inside of you to house a baby for 9 months and things will be starting to stretch pretty soon. What you are feeling is completely normal and most women feel it too. I know I did. Good Luck and can't wait to here what the beta is.

    I have the same thing and I'm 4 weeks today. Freaks me out too but I've heard from more than one place that it's completely normal. The way I'm trying to look at it is maybe it's a good sign that your body is adjusting to keep the pregnancy.

    I felt the same thing just a few short weeks ago. But, I'm definitely still pregnant and almost 8 weeks now. The cramps still come and go, some are more severe than others. They seemed to be more frequent closest to my BFP. I bet everything is completely fine!

    Yep! Felt like AF cramps from about 2 weeks and lasted through the majority of the first trimester (at varying degrees, on and off). :)

    Been cramping for 3 days now, and I'm approaching 4 weeks. I'd say it's normal.
