I just found out on sunday and i've been
having some lower back pain so i'd say
that it's fairly normal.
Btw... Congrats!! When are you due??

I'm 5 weeks preggy, the cramps is normal
this is due to our corpus luteum in our
ovary, I have cramps too and this corpus
luteum is responsible in forming the
placenta.

You should still see your doctor for any
cramping!!! Who knows what is normal for
you! I had cramping when I was pregnant,
and I was actually in labor. I didn't
even know I was pregnant.

This early in pregnancy it is not easy to
determine the normal growing "cramping"
from the somethings wrong "cramping". I
would monitor it. If its just every now
& then - everything is probably ok.
But if it comes more often than not, or
gets to be constant - I would definately
call the Dr.
You should call the dr anyway - to make me
(&you) feel better:)

It is very painful for the first 5 weeks
after ovulation, was for me anyway.
Every day all day long. But it is no
where as painful as a miscarriage, or even
as hard as period cramps were for me.
It is just that it lasts around 5 to 6
weeks for most women, (long pain some
times seems more painful--if you know what
I mean)---- it is the expelling of
estrogen and progestrone, while the
placenta is forming. It is corpus
luteum, like other writer says.

I had no idea I was pregnant. I was
having a little cramping and back pain.
My husband tried to crack my back, I tried
everything. Finally, I went to the er and
they told me I was having pre term labor!

I was 16 weeks. I was put on medication
to stop the labor for the remainder of the
pregnancy. Everything turned out okay!

Whaaaa? You were four months pregnant and
had gone into labor? I've only heard of
something similar happening once, only the
mother actually gave birth at 5 months.
Wow, that's craziness, but I guess it's
understandable that you may not know of
pregnancy at 16 weeks, especially if your
symptoms were very subtle and since your
belly doesn't show until about 20 weeks.
Nonetheless, i'm glad to know everything
turned out okay.
