6 weeks pregnant - constant cramping every 4 hours for 30 mins?

Hi, as in my previous questions posted on here im worried sick about miscarriage... ive had 2 miscarriages so far (one missed and one chemical). But now im 6 weeks pregnant again and keep getting stretching/pain in my lower abdomen. It appears to be happening every 4 hours for about 30 mins or so. It also see more intense at night. Ive been having this for about a week now and its now interferring with my sleep. I have today brought some prunes incase its constipation (which i suffer from anyway). Has anyone else had similar at 6 weeks pregnant? Just after you own experiences to put my mind at ease. Many thanks

*Note: I have early scan this Friday because of history of miscarrige.

Update:

Actually discovered the cramping is chronic constipation!!! Christ tell you what - that hurts.. :O( x

    I'm about 6 weeks preg. and feeling the same thing. It is our bodies preparing for the pregnancy, carrying and delivering. Your cervix is changing - I think maybe stretching and thinning. I had it with 2 pregnancies, so don't be alarmed! :)
