    Hi Blayne,
    congratulations on your wonderful news. It's overwhelmingly exciting isn't it. I'm still buzzing 9 weeks in! I had period like cramps from abt weeks 5 to 7. At one stage they got so bad I really freaked out and ended up at the doc in tears and then sent in for an ultrasound - where we got to see a little heart beat!!! The sonographer said it was just the feeling of my uterus stretching. In the past week these have gone only to be replaced by sharp pains around my belly and in my lower back which I'm told is ligaments stretching. Jeeez... I fret enough without all these unexpected odd symptoms! I know it's all weird and nerve-racking but hang in there - BRING ON THE THIRTEENTH WEEK I say!

    All the very best for a happy and healthy pregnancy.

    I had alot of cramping with my DD, the doctor said the same as Kat, it was ligaments and uterus streching... if your at any time concern just go speak to your Doc...
