cramps at 6 weeks

[Ggg555]

hi all. I have been having one sided cramps in my lower stomach for about an hour. They come and go every few minutes. They are not painful but I can feel them. Is this a cause for concern? I’m getting worried.

I’m 6 weeks pregnant today.

I had cramps in early pregnancy. It's very common, it can be caused by stretching. Do you have a scan booked soon? Hopefully that can help reassure you

Thank you for responding. I had my first scan booked for Friday but I messaged my clinic and they asked if I can move to scan forward so I’m not going tomorrow. To be honest their response made be more anxious 😬

Just to update I had a scan today and everything is absolutely fine. Got to see the heartbeat(120bpm) which was amazing 🥹💗
