Pregnant after IF

anyone else have cramping around 8 weeks?

I had cramping early around 4-5 weeks but then it went away. It just started back up again last night. From what I've read its normal and probably just my messed up digestion or my uterus growing, but its still uncomfortable and makes me anxious.
IVF, acupuncture, meditation and a miracle.

  • I had bad cramping throughout most of the 1st trimester. My cramps were so bad I kept running to the bathroom thinking AF was on her way. Hang in there. It's totally normal.

  • I'm pretty sure we'll all tell you we had cramping in 1st tri! It's totally normal. Wait until RLP starts! That's a party! Feel better.

  • Yes!  It's completely normal.  I often thought something was going wrong and would call the Dr and he would assure me it's normal.  I'm now 12 weeks and the cramping has finally started to go away!  Hang in there!

  • I'm not as far as you, but I've had cramping off and on the whole time. This morning it was really uncomfortable and it had me worried, but I'm sure it's just normal cramping.

  • I had cramping throughout the first trimester.  Its just everything growing in there.  Just put your feet up drink lost of water and relax!
