i AM NEW TO THIS BOARD AND NEED SOME HELP SUPPORT ENCOURAGEMENT PLEASE...
Hi Ladies ..Iam currently pregnant..4.5 to 5 weeks .. i lost my first pregnancy.when i was 5 weeks.and only knew i was pregnant for a week..and...I was just curious if any of you ladies got cramps like mostly towards the ovaries and around the bell button with my first pregnancy I miscarried and had cramps in my lower belly but they dont feel like it this time like they did last time...how do you know the difference between gas cramps and just cramps? And what are the warning signs? I have no bleeding or spotting...I think I am okay!Just need advice please...


OH Sweetie... I'm so sorry to hear about your loss.
Mild cramping early on is very common. I just found this article on it, if it helps:

I had period-like cramping early on when I was pregnant with DD. Had some this time, too, but not as much - I mostly had intestinal cramps (which were different, because they'd feel better when the gas moved through my system - fun).
I know it's so hard not to worry, but this board is a great support for that! :-)
