Yes Tamara, I too have cramp like pains during the beginning of my pregnancies, this was usually the first sign that I was pg! Usually got the severe pains (my dr told me they were ligament stretching pains) before AF was even due. I suffered 2 m/c's 2 years ago and now that I am pg again, every little twinge makes me rush to the loo to check for any spotting/bleeding! So far so good tho and I hope that early next year I will be holding my precious happy and healthy bub in my arms.
All the best for ur pregnancy and hope that all goes well for you.
