5 weeks and cramping - normal?
I have not taken a HPT, AF is due today. I do not want it to come. We've been
TTC for almost 6 years. We have male factor infertility. By the pregnancy calendar it says that if I am pregnant I am 5 weeks. For about a week now I've had these sharp cramps come off & on in my lower ab area, like below my navel. They are different than my regular period cramping those are usually on one side or another and into my hips. I usually also have a backache but I don't have anything like that...just these annoying pulling/stretching cramps. Just wondering how many others had this same thing and were in fact pregnant. I will be taking a HPT this weekend if AF does not show up. Just looking for other experiences. Thanks in Advance. Kirsten TTC almost 6 yrs. male factor |

I have had cramps like this in the very early stages with each of my
pragnancies and they were all healthy - if it gets too bad get checked out - with my first pregnancy they checked me for an ectopic pregnancy but all was well. Of course if you have any bleeding get checked out. And also if you are worried it doesn't hurt to get checked out anyway - they won't mind reassuring you! Good luck!

They are different than my regular period cramping From my experience it could go either way. It is quite common to have a bit of cramping in early pregnancy, but I have felt so many variations on period cramps and early pregnancy cramps that it is hard to tell them apart in my case. Nevertheless, it never hurts to be optimistic, and if you clearly feel these are different, then this might be your lucky cycle. *~*~*~*babydust*~*~*~* -- -- I mommy to DS (July '02) mommy to three tiny angels (28 Oct'03, 17 Feb'04 & 20 May'04) guardian of DH (33) |

Thank you all, I've also have different variations of AF cramping. But I have
never had these before so maybe we did get lucky this time around. I appreciate hearing everyone's experience even though every person and every pregnancy is different, it helps knowing that what might be happening is good. I would be very upset if I had to suffer through these cramps and end up having the old hag visit anyway, it hardly seems worth it. If anyone else would like to tell their experience would love to hear them. Kirsten TTC almost 6 yrs. male factor infertility |
