Dodgy stomach and cramps in early pregnancy

Hi
I'm 5 weeks pregnant and for the last week have had horrendous stomach cramps and then diarrhoea several times a day... has anyone else experienced this and it all been okay?
I'm guessing the cramping is linked to the dodgy tum, but it worries me a bit as it can also be a sign of mc can't it?
This is my second pregnancy and I didn't have anything like this first time around.
Thanks

I had an upset tummy on and off throughout my pregnancy (1st) mw told me it's hormones, which makes sense as I got the same problem on my period when I'm crazy hormonal

Maybe call the EPU and speak with them? They might book you in for an early scan x

Thanks. I'll wait another week for you as they can't scan before 6 weeks anyway can they?

I think that's right. See how you feel in a week. But it might be good to speak with them for advice/peace of mind too. Good luck, I hope it all goes well 💐
