Period cramps - 8 weeks and 6 days pregnant

Hi guys, I feel like I'm driving myself mad! I had a miscarriage in May so I think I'm being extra cautious.

I am 8 weeks and 6 days pregnant, I had a scan at 7 weeks and 4 days and baby measured at 7 weeks bang on (I know it's not much but I really wanted to measure ahead) , I have another scan in 5 days but I'm feeling so anxious.

I've been having mild but dull period like cramps in my lower back the last couple of days. They are very mild, and otherwise I'm fine. All my symptoms (sore boobs, exhausted and nausea) are still very persistent.

Has anyone experienced this? I feel like the next 5 days will be so so long waiting for this next ultrasound 🥺

Only speaking from experience, but I had cramps throughout my first trimester, it was just the uterus stretching and growing. Obviously if they are very bad etc seek advice from midwife but for me it was normal :)

I'm 23 weeks and 2 days now with my baby boy 🩵 that feeling was completely normal, at the rest of my follow up ultrasounds baby measured ahead and I've gone from being due in May to now April! So he was perfectly fine
