Bad Cramping at 4 Weeks

Serenity

I just found out I’m pregnant but between weeks 3, 4, and what is about to 5 I’ve been having really bad cramps. They’re like period cramps and I have to squeeze something when they come up. I’ve also had some spotting. It starts off bright red and is enough to cause maybe 2 or 3 drops in the toilet. Does this sound like a miscarriage or has anyone ever experienced this before?
