How long should I expect cramping to last?

[Maple_Fairy]

So I’m only 4weeks and 2 days and had what feels like mild AF cramping for a lot of the last 4-5 days!

Has anyone else gone through cramping and if so, how long did it last for? It’s sooooo annoying and uncomfortable...

This is my first pregnancy so I’m soooo new to all this. I can only imagine I have a lot worse to come but can’t stand cramp!

You'll probably have period-like cramps until week 6 or so. Then after that, you'll notice you still have sporadic cramping during periods of growth for the baby.

Oh I have so much to look forward to then! I guess
Just a break from it now and again would be good. Fingers crossed it should ease in a couple of weeks then!

I had them for quite a while. Try rest and drunk as much as possible. Cramps as always worse when dehydrated.
Congratulations ❤

Hi
I had lots of cramping it made me worry. My Dr my friends nhs(uk) web-dr Google all said it's normal as the uterus is growing. Just make sure when u wipe after the loo there's no blood.

I saw that and just thought “get drunk? Really?” 😂

I’ve been drinking so much it’s ridiculas haha! (Water not alcohol) And peeing a lot.

Was a little worried as this morning felt quite .. well, I don’t know... achey? Not quite painful..I did wake up with a really full bladder though so not sure if it was that as by the afternoon it had gone. I’m freaking out so much as so worried something is going to go wrong ... I don’t know if I can wait another 8 weeks for the scan to make sure bubba is ok!

I might just be super sensitive. But pretty much a full bladder..needing a no 2 or the cold makes me ache! Then its full panic stations. I have been convinced 100 times its period starting..the exact pains..even into the back. So what you are feeling is totally normal.
