Cramping in early pregnancy

Stephanie

Hi can anyone share their experience with cramping early on? I'm only five weeks but my lower abdomen has been very crampy the past three days, its there almost constantly. I know cramping can be normal but I'm not sure to what extent.

This is my second pregnancy, the first ended in miscarriage not much further along than this.

First doctors appointment in just over a weeks time.

Thanks in advance :)
