5 weeks pregnant

A

Hey all! We just found out that we’re pregnant and I’ve been cramping like crazy for a week. Like really really bad period cramps, heavy cramping on and off for a week since We found out. I’m not bleeding or spotting, super gassy and bloated, but the pain wakes me up a lot.

HELP PLEASE. I have my first OB appt in three weeks, but I might get in earlier. This is my first pregnancy.

1 Is this much cramping bad?

2 I use heating pads for the pain instead of meds. Is Tylenol okay in moderation?

Any advice is helpful! 🙏🏻
