Cramping while pregnant
Just found out I'm pregnant. The first day of my last period was Aug 27th. My normal period cramps are pretty bad. I have to breath through them and they stop me in my tracks. I've been experiencing these cramps once maybe twice a day. Then some days not at all. I haven't been spotting at all. Should I be concerned. I do not have insurance yet so "call and ask your doctor" is not an option.
