Cramps in early pregnancy?

hi yourgirl and congrats....yes that is very normal to have during this time. If you feel like it is getting worse contact your dr and also if there is spotting along with the cramping contact your dr. @@@stickyglue@@@

Thanks angelfish. It does not feel severe, kind of like a dull ache now and then.

Oh - how long did the cramping and aching last for you in early pregnancy?

You are welcome dear and that is ok....

each person is different....

are the cramps on the sides of ovaries

yes and a little bit at the top of my legs. it feels like af cramps and happens now and then but not constant.

very normal....could be round ligament pain...very common to have....if no bleeding you are good....and @@@@stickyglue@@@@ for you

yourgirl- I am having the same thing right now! its been going on since 3.5 weeks (before I knew I was pregs!) until now, which is 5.5 weeks...it makes me so nervous, but everyone tells me its normal! :)

babyquestions - i am glad to see that others are experiencing my symptoms. Have you seen the dr yet? My u/s is scheudled for 7.5 weeks so i have a way to go and super nervous. I have also been experiencing tiredness, difficult time sleeping and getting comfortable and my appetitate is not what it used to be. No morning sickness yet - what boabout you?

your girl- i am tired sometimes, but i don't know if am letting myself be more tired or if i really am!? And my appitite is not the same either, but i'm not sick yet, just picky! :)

I go for my u/s on 7/7, which will be 6 wks, 4 days...hopefully we see the heartbeat! :) I have had my hcg bloodtests done and they were good.

The doc said that the cramps are totally normal if there is no bleeding! (and sometimes bleeding isn't bad, but definitely call the doc if there is bleeding)

Thank you! What were you hcg and progesterone levles?

progesterone was 32 1 week after ov.

hcg 18dpo: 538

hcg 20dpo: 1306

i posted a question on friday b/c i had a question about my progesterone... last monday it was 33 and on thursday it was 22. My HCG went from 459 to 2300 hcg. The nurse from my RE"s office said that progesterone can fluctuate and so did Dr. Q - although I am going to go get it tested this week. have you heard of progesterone fluctuating?

YES! mine went from 32 to 21 to 20...and i was a nervous! but my doctor says that it doesn't matter as long as its in the normal zone! :)

your girl- how far along are you? we seem to be very similar!

we are very similiar - i am just 5 weeks! I feel like everyday I am so nervous but have to pray and keep positive.

I am the same! i just want to feel like everything is "safe!" you know? I am 5 wk, 3 days today!
