Dull Period Pains?!

Question

I’m only 4.5 weeks pregnant but for the past couple of days I’ve been having very dull period-like pains. I basically feel as if I’m going to get my period! 
I have had some very mild brown discharge/spotting for a few days too (had a bit before I even got my BFP!) 
Is this normal?? Anyone experienced this and been ok/healthy? 
(I’ve had two previous miscarriages so am naturally worried. Have been taking 800mcg folic acid and a baby aspirin a day. Also had blood tests done last week for tests on my past m/c so find the results of those on Monday. Need this little bean to stick!!!!

Just wish I could get past 7 weeks without ANYTHING at all haha)

Answer

mild period like cramps are normal as they tend to happen as your womb is expanding. I had the same for a few days, a few weeks back. spotting/bleeding is more concerning but then again I've read that Brown blood is usually old blood still shedding. its only when the blood  is red or in large quantities that you need to worry. try not to worry  but do see your  doctor if it gets worse.

Answer

I’m having the same symptoms. this is my first pregnancy so me and my husband were worrying. I called my doctor and she said that if it’s very light brown that’s normal. Having sex may cause you to bleed or just the uterus being irritated will cause it. She said if You start bleeding Heavy like Your having a normal period and fill up a pantry liner to call the doctor ASAP. I’ve had mild off and on cramping since I found out I was pregnant two weeks ago I’ve read that’s the uterus stretching and growing.
