That cramping (like AF but intermittent) and light spotting at 4+2 is normal?

That it's normal to become aware of your cervix in early pregnancy, if that's even a thing? It doesn't hurt, I just know it's there. It feels a bit like it does during AF and I'm bleeding.

Has anyone else had this before and had a healthy pregnancy?

The early weeks can be so stressful. Some people bleed a bit, some cramp and go on to have a healthy pregnancy but of course some miscarry. My mum has what she thought were periods for first four months of pregnancy with me so didn’t know she was pregnant and I bled for 14 weeks on and off as I miscarried a twin but then gave birth to the other at almost full term.

It’s such an uncertain time and you can only wait which is difficult Flowers

I had lots of cramping from weeks 4-5. It was especially bad when my period was due, it seems to have eased off now (6.5weeks) but do occasionally get some mild cramping. Drink lots of water and rest and trust your body to do what’s right ❤️

Hi, I'm also 4+2 and have lots of cramping and weird aches and pains low down. I have read that's it's normal to have spotting in early pregnancy also. Good luck xx

Hi I’m about 5 weeks I had a scan yesterday as I was spotting brownish blood for the past week and a day before my scan I had fresh blood when I wiped myself. They could find an heart beat as it’s too small yet and I’ve been told to wait it out until next week. I have an another scan I’m just so scared as I’m not cramping just aching i feel sick sometimes but sometimes I don’t feel anything im so confused it’s not my first pregnancy but this is the first time I have been spotting and feeling this way.... i woke up this morning to strings type in my urine I did a pregnancy test its a faint line but still positive and honestly im doing one each day sometimes couple times a day. Just to make sure everything is ok it's so scary I'm just hanging in between I have no pains just a little bit of nausea , brownish colour on pad but was having hot type flushes last night but all fine now trying to get on with daily routines at a slower pace to get my mind of it all but it's still it's not working thou I'm preparing myself for the worst like that hopefully if everything well it will be a lovely blessing (fingers crossed) is there anyone who knows if this is normal would really appreciate thanks
