How much cramping is normal?

[Deleted]

I was the idiot that couldn't read a pregnancy test last week without help from you guys.

I'm wondering how much cramping is normal this early on. I'm guessing I'm around 6 weeks based on when my last period was. All of the cramps are really low and last night they woke me up. Is this something I should be concerned about?

I remember having a lot of cramps in the beginning. Your uterus is stretching. As long as your not spotting, I'd say normal.

I remember being about 6 weeks and having cramps that bad. They kept me up and I was freaking out, but everything turned out fine. Drink lots of water and if you're concerned it's not a big deal to call your doctor.

I was convinced my period was going to start any minute and the pg tests were wrong my cramping was so bad.drink water, put your feet up for a bit and call your dr if you're still worried. Good luck!

I had almost constant cramping until almost 12 weeks. If it makes you feel better, definitely call your doctor. I did and it helped.

I cramped all through the first trimester.

That's reassuring, thank you.
