early pregnancy cramps

Emily
Hey ladies! So I am 5 weeks pregnant with very few symptoms as of now but I do have some stomach cramping. I know this is normal but it seems to get pretty bad when I lay down. Does this happen to anyone else? Is this normal?

I had that early on and it's your ligaments starting to stretch :) it worried me too but it's completely normal.

I'm 4 weeks 5 days and experiencing the same as the rest of you ladies. It's hard not to feel fragile and worry! Especially when the cramping makes you have a constant awareness. Glad to see I'm not the only one❤

I am 4 weeks and mine always get worse when I am laying down to go to bed!! It's normal but definitely nerve wracking!!

I'm the same way! When I lay down or sit at an angle they become very consistent but they aren't extreme. When I move around to sit in different positions I get cramping(:

Hi! I'm 4 wks & 5 days and I've had cramping for about a week. Seems to be worse in the evening and through the night. It's eased off the last couple of days. I've read it's the uterus expanding and adjusting 🙂
