I am 8 weeks pregnant and is this normal?

Question

I have been experiencing cramping. Sometimes sharp and sometimes dull. I had a miscarriage recently and I am so scared that it will happen again. I have no bleeding at all but the cramps worry me. I sometimes get them only one time a day and other days it seems like ten times. I try to stay calm and rest as much as I can but I cant help but be scared. I wont be able to get to the doctor for a few weeks due to insurence issues. I know that that is a must as soon as I can but I just want to know if cramping is normal at this stage in my pregnancy?

Answer 1

call doctor.

Answer 2

I had sharp and dull menstual type cramps through week 10, and it is totaly normal. I also got upsed about them, but once I went in for my ultrasound, I was reassured that they are totally normal cramps.

If the cramps become severe and are accompanied by heavy bleeding, though, you should go to the ER immediately, as that IS a sign of miscarriage.

Answer 3

I think it can be normal to get some cramps around the time you would have had your period, for the first couple of months anyway. I had cramps at around 8 weeks and 12 weeks, and my pregnacy was fine. Obviously you should really get this checked out asap, but if you really can't go see a doctor then try to get plenty of rest, and relax as much as you can. I really hope everthing goes ok for you.

Answer 4

Don't worry - this cramping is completely normal. I know how you feel about beingg anxious because i worried about every single cramp that i felt - scared that it might mean a miscarriage. But don't get stressed - even this early your body is preparing room for the baby and your uterus is already beginning to grow. You're gonna be fine. Good luck and congrats!

Answer 5

I think you are ok but if you need peace of mind, call your doctor. I am currently 6 months and I cramped REALLY bad the first few months. I felt like I was on my period. I ocassionally still get a cramp.

Answer 6

I had mild cramps around that time. My OB/GYN said mild period like cramps are fairly normal and not to worry unless the pain becomes extreme and is accompanied by bright red bleedign that wont stop. hope this helps . congrats on your baby !

Answer 7

Cramping can be normal, but I would still choke up the cost and go to a Doctor and have him check you out.

Cramping can be caused by the uterus stretching.

Answer 9

i had the same thing-- mine was indigestion, uterus growing-- my Dr said that if the cramps were high in your stomach that was fine, if they were low in your abdomen then its time to worry- but only if there is bright red blood-- if you need peace of mind just call the Dr and ask them-- they cant charge you for that-- good luck and don't worry-- esp if you've already had a miscarriage--just ask yourself if it feels like that...
