Painful cramps

I'm 5 weeks pregnant and I have had mild cramps since the beginning but today I had bad cramps this morning. No bleeding or spotting! So that's good. Is this normal??

Cramping is completely normal.  I would not worry unless you start bleeding.  Good luck and I am sure everything is fine:)

I agree with pp cramping is normal as long as there's no bleeding. I would say try and relax but I know that's hard.

I've had a few instances where the cramping was fairly painful. It worries me quite a bit as well, but just try and drink as much water as possible and maybe take a walk if you can... those are things that have been helping me so far

I had cramps consistently for almost week, they went away, then came back for short bursts on a couple of days.  From everything I have read that is normal and just your body making room for the growing little one.

I find a few minutes with a hot water bottle alternating from pelvis to back helps. I also get bad headaches and heat or ice on my head makes them a world better.

I guess a hearting pad is out of the question ?I use during period cramps. I too have been very crampy. Not excruciating.

I've been crampy on and off since the beginning. No bleeding so I'm not concerned. :-)

I've been crampy for quite a while as well.  Its sort of like period cramps.
