If there is ANY blood, you need to see your doctor immediately.
While cramping is somewhat normal, if it's VERY painful then you need to see your doctor or even a different doctor.
I've been pregnant twice and have never cramped that terribly in the first trimester.

Your Dr may have been referring to the corpus luteum on your ovary. It is the area on your ovary where the egg was released. It can grow from 2-6cm in diameter. It is responsible for secreting the hormones of early pregnancy until the placenta takes over. Every woman has one when she is pregnant but it will shrink and disappear by the end of the first trimester.
As far as the cramping goes, as long as you are not experiencing bleeding you should be fine. Your body is under the influence of rapidly changing hormone levels and your uterus will cramp and contract all the way through pregnancy to achieve good blood supply to the uterus. You may or may not feel these on and off. Your uterus may already be starting to grow just a bit too.
Try not to worry and enjoy your pregnancy!

If you start bleeding, (not matter what color blood), feel faint, the pain becomes worse or you have any of the above symptoms contact your dr ASAP. There also doesn't have to be bleeding for an ectopic.
I don't want to scare you and everything is probably be fine. Husband and I had been trying for 7 years to get pregnant and it finally happened. The day after I found out, when I wiped there were traces of blood. Everyone told me not to worry. Then the pain started it only hurt when i sat for long periods of time or if there was pressure on that side. My dr. closed at lunch on fridays so I figured as long as the pain wasn't to bad everything was ok. I went to see my dr. monday morning and explained everything to him, with in 15 minutes i had an ultrasound as was on my way to the ER for emergency surgery for a ruptured ectopic lost the tube (which was my only good one) and my chance for a baby.
So PLEASE listen to your body, if you feel that something isn't right, don't be embarassed to call your dr or go to the er. It's their job to make sure everything is OK. If you continue to hurt your dr should do an ultrasound to make sure everything is where it's supposed to be, if he brushes you off, you need to find another dr.

Hi love. First off, just relax. Cramping occurs in 95% of pregnant women in their first trimester. Hormones play a big part in the cramping, but also remember that your uterus is now home to a little growing person. So, it's bound to be uncomfortable. I got so bad that I called my OB fearing the worst. She said to drink a lot of water and lay on your left side. It worked. So, you are fine. If you start to bleed or the cramps become unbearable, then go to the ER. Oh... I have never heard of carrying an ovarian cyst after conception. That one is new to me. Good luck and congrats!

Yes, it's true that you may have a cyst on your ovary, and that is normal, but if you are really hurting and it's scaring you, call the doctor back. You have a right to get a good answer or get a second opinion.
I'm 9 weeks pregnant and just had my first ultrasound yesterday and she showed me a cyst also on my ovary. I didn't even know I had one. She said it's normal at this stage in pregnancy.

I had a lot of cramping with both of my pregnancies, it means that your cervix is expanding for the baby. If you have any blood or severe ongoing cramping though GO TO THE ER!!!! Other than that a sharp cramp that only lasts for a few seconds to minutes is fine. I used to get cramping when I stood up too fast, sometimes when I would move sideways or roll over in bed, anything like that would cause sharp cramping...hope this helps

well I can only recite from experience. I did not have ovary cysts after conception.
However this could be your case and was my first thought before reading what your doctor said.
If you trust your doc then go with what he is telling you. If you don't trust him them find a new doctor.

With my 2nd baby , in the beginning I remember having some pretty hurtful achiness in BOTH of my ovaries...it almost felt like they were heavy and "falling out" if that makes sense...don't worry it is normal...

There is a book called " what to expect when expecting' you can get at any book store or even at wal-mart. It helped me all the way to the end when i had my son i called it my bible when i was pregant. And also remember you are pregant so take it easy take time for you cause when the baby comes your time is little to none!
