Not sure if this is odd or not or if it's normal...I have had on and off cramping for 8 weeks now ( I am just shy of 8 weeks prego) and have my first appointment next week Thursday (the 24th)...well I seem to have stopped cramping? Should I take that as a good sign? I had a MC with our first so I guess every little thing is making me wonder...thanks!
Re: Odd question
This. You said yourself your cramping has been on and off anyways, you're just 'off' right now.

All ALers welcome!
I'm in the exact same boat! I'd been cramping and then this week it's no where near as noticeable. I'm on week 7, my first apt. is next Friday (the 25th).
I'm glad it's nothing to worry about!
My biggest issue has been food "sitting" at the base of my sternum. I guess it's technically indigestion, but I think it's crazy that it's starting this early on.

I had reasonably strong cramping up until I was 8 weeks, then it subsided.
Now I have round ligament pain so there's always some symptom coming and going.
I sympathise with your concern, after 2 miscarriages myself, but try not to worry too much about all the changes and new sensations.
