Was wondering if any one had experienced this too... Am 5+3 had positive pregnancy test (very excited) but have had cramps off and on for last 3 days. They aren't massively painful but are def there im not bleeding or spotting and I know you can get cramps due to implantation but how long does this last? I have a DD already but didn't experience this with her. Thought I'd be less worried this pregnancy!

I have had them on and off up till now (21+1). I had bad ones from 5-7, but they were more stretching pains than cramps. They are normal, don't worry unless you start bleeding or they are so painful they require painkillers.

Thank you! Logical part of brain has been telling me this but sometimes you just need to hear it from somebody else! X

My first post on mumsnet was on this subject, I was terrified, but all ok. Everything just stretches and moves, it is supposed to, sometimes you feel it sometimes you don't. Good luck with everything.
