Ya know, these questions are probably best directed to your doctor, especially since he knows you and your history.
It depends on the cramping. I used to feel what my doctor said was ligaments stretching. It was very mild, and almost constant in the early months but not really painful.
Anything else may well be serious and if there's bleeding too, likely is.
As to a chance of more miscarriages, that would depend on why you are having them. There's a lot of reasons and the docs can test to figure out some that may be preventable.
Don't automatically panic though. I had a friend who had appendicitis at 9 weeks. 7 months later she delivered a perfect baby boy.

I had alot of cramping, especially when I first became pregnant. My cramps felt like light menstrual cramps... That was normal for me, but it may not be for you. I would call your OB/GYN, they're normally pretty good about calling you back, even on weekends. If you've had two miscarriages, it's a good idea to go to the doctor as soon as you can. Normally they'll take you earlier in your pregnancy if you've had past problems.
I'm not sure what the chances of a third miscarriage is, my friend had two miscarriages related to low progesterone levels, so she just had to take a progesterone supplement. The first two could've been completely unrelated or related to lifestyle choices. Make sure that you slowly cut caffeine out of your diet, recent studies suggest a correlation between excessive caffeine use and miscarriage. Of course, never smoke, drink alcohol, or do illegal drugs during pregnancy.

As the uterus gets bigger there is some cramping, yes. The ligament that supports the uterus while it grows is stretching and causes this pain. You probably feel it down your inner thigh, too. It is called 'Round Ligament Syndrome" After your body gets used to this you won't feel it near as much. Try using a heating pad or hot water bottle on the affected area. Ask your doctor if it ok for you to take Tylenol. That will ease some of the pain. This does not mean that you will have a miscarriage, just that your body is rapidly changing.

Nothing is for sure. I would always always call your doctor, or gynecologist, or midwife. The later are great. Miscarriages can show up in so many ways, and so can normal pregnancies. I had a friend who had two babies, on miscarriage, and the last one was miscarrying, and she was put on progeserone, and is now just fine. I have another friend who had two miscarriages, and two kids. It varies.

Cramping is normal as your uterus expands, but if you've had miscarriages, I'd go check with your OB/GYN. Previous miscarriages does increase your chance of having a miscarriage.

Sometimes you can experiance cramping but if you have a history of miscarriages then you should speak with your doctor about it.
