constant cramping at 6 weeks

[valentine5]

hi i am 6 weeks pregnant and this is my first,for the last week ive felt really rough,with terrible headaches and constant cramping in my tummy especially at night is this normal? xx

It is usual to get period type pains esp with your first pg.# ligaments stretching etc i think.
My advice would be to book yourself inwith gp to put your mind at rest

thankyou its a relieve to hear that what type of painkillers are safe to use when pregnant? x

I experienced these pains too with dd, however if your worried it won't do any harm to ask your GP.

You can take paracetomol (sp?) Take care x

i will do, thankyou for your advice xx

Hope everything works out ok valentine5.
