Re: Cramps so early is this normal
I was very crampy the first month ~ like mentrual cramps everyday ~ my dr said it was the uterus stretching... since you are going to the dr Monday i am sure a couple more days without prenatal vitamins are ok ~ it you feel better you can take the OTC prenatals! 
congratulations! 
try to relax as much as possible ~ try not to stress over the cramping ~ i felt the same way... try not worry (I know easier said than done...)

Re: Cramps so early is this normal
 Congrats!!!! I was totally crampy and still am now, only less so (at 12 weeks). Its totally normal. You can def take the prenatals if you want to but I would hold off on taking anything else until you see your doc! Congrats again!

Re: Cramps so early is this normal
that is very normal. It is your uterus stretching. Its going to happen for a couple of weeks. I still get it from time to time

Re: Cramps so early is this normal
I've been having cramping (like period cramping) and I'm 5-6 weeks. I would definately start taking pre-natals b/c they are very important early in the pregnancy. Anything else I would hold off on until you see the doctor.
Congratulations!

Re: Cramps so early is this normal
I am 5 weeks. I am going to the doctor Monday also! I am also cramping and freaking out! Let's try to convince each other not to worry so much.

Re: Cramps so early is this normal
I had a lot of cramping through 8 weeks, then it subsided and now at 14w its just occasional.
But try to relax, it sounds normal. It's probably just a combination of your uterus stretching and you over analyzing

Re: Cramps so early is this normal
Totally normal!! I had major cramping the week I got my BFP, and the two weeks following.
I was convinced something was wrong, but it was fine!
Congrats on your pregnancy!
