    I have them off and on too...esp at the beginning, now they've tapered off a little. Things are growing in there, and that baby is snuggling down.

    I had mild cramps up to 7 weeks then it stopped. I am now having cramps again and I'm at 11w2d. It's kinda freaking me out but I'm glad to see the other posts here.

    Totally normal. In fact, so many woman describe the cramps as similar to those that indicate their period is coming. Its your uterus growing, stretching and everything else that is changing inside of you. Very severe cramps are a different thing, but normal cramping is completely normal. Congratulations on your pregnancy!

    Oh and your betas sound great!

    Totally normal for at least the first several weeks of pregnancy. I kept asking my OB about the cramps because they were disconcerting, and he said he would be surprised if I didn't have cramps.

    And congratulations!

    I also had cramping. It lasted throughout my third week. They got pretty bad for about two days. I think its just things getting situated, like a new home!

    Sounds normal to me...with my 2nd and 3rd pregnancies I had cramps all the time and they were painful, up until about 10 weeks for me. I was totally convinced that AF was coming or I would m/c but all was fine.

    Your cramps sound completely normal to me
