Hi everyone,

I have a question. I'm exactly 5 weeks pregnant today, but I'm already experiencing period-like cramps lower in my belly and occasional back cramps. I had a miscarriage before, so I'm quite worried, but can these symptoms be normal? Thanks in advance.

    Thanks! Yeah, I've been really stressed since my first miscarriage. I'm already scared that a second one might happen. Every time I feel pain or cramps, I start hoping and praying that the baby is okay!

    I'm 8 weeks tomorrow and have felt like I was going to get my period for 4 weeks now... And it's still good as far as I know.

    Thanks for the replies! I'm trying to stay as calm as possible and not stress because that doesn't help either. I think it's normal that it's part of it!
