Cramping is a common early pregnancy symptom and usually nothing to worry about. Aches, twinges, and pulling or stretching muscle pain are typical and differ in length and intensity between people. If you have bleeding you should consult your doctor. For the sake of your and your baby's health you should be under the care of a doctor. Wish you good health and a healthy baby!

This is extremely common at this stage of pregnancy largely due to the growing uterus. If the pain gets more intense or located just on one side it may be worthwhile being checked
