12w2d Cramping!!

Julianne
Little over 12 weeks and the pulling, tugging and general discomfort is much more than I anticipated! I woke up at 4am and needed a heating pad, I was scared my period was coming. (Luckily no spotting and my dr said this sounds normal) but I'm going on day 2 of this. Is anyone else going through a growth spurt right now??
