Cramping is worrying me

Has anyone else had consistent cramping since bfp? I'm 5+1 and today have woken up with lower back pain and cramping. I had some light brown/pink spotting last week which has cleared up, but these ongoing cramps are giving me major anxiety.

I'm not saying it's normal but I did. I had cramping right through my first trimester. Now 34 weeks X

I keep getting back pain on and off as well, and some twinges in my lower pelvis at front. It comes and goes. I’m 5+1. If you bleed I would get checked out but otherwise cramps are common (unless severe) so in themselves not something to worry about!

I'm 18+4 today and I've had cramping all through my pregnancy. If you have any worries at all always call EPAS. I called them so much in the first 10 weeks and they were so lovely but it's honestly likely nothing and just a lot of stretching and moving!

I’m 14 weeks now but my first and only real symptom of being pregnant was cramps. They were borderline excruciating, a lot worse than any period pains I have. I was due on so thought they were just menstrual cramps however when the blood didn’t come I know it must be something else. For the first week-2 weeks it was agony and I was constantly taking paracetamol and hot water bottle! All turned out ok but if you do get concerned then ring EPAU ❤️

I also had 2 days of spotting which I thought was my period starting but then it stopped and I got the cramps and no more blood x
