Cramping at 8 weeks pregnant?

Hi I am currently 8 weeks pregnant. I have 2 girls and had a miscarriage about 6 months ago. Obviously, I am scared about having another miscarriage. I am just wondering if anyone had cramps like this before. It is pretty much on and off but, they are really weird. Sometimes on the right and sometimes on the left but, a lot of time they are higher up near my ribs or above my hips. It isn't extremely painful its just a strange kind of painful feeling. Anyone have this? Does it sound like a possible miscarriage? I have the regular pregnancy symptoms so I feel a little better about that but, what else could it be? Thanks!

    Totally average! I'm eleven weeks pregnant and feature had the mild cramping ever for the reason that 6 weeks. My OB mentioned it is adequate so long as there is not any bleeding. Basically, now we have ligaments in our stomach which can be not ever used besides in the course of being pregnant. When your uterus begins to develop (even relatively), you can begin feeling the cramps and stretching feeling. I am eleven weeks and simply began noticing that I get the crampy/sharp soreness emotions whilst I snort relatively difficult or cough. Again, very average. Congrats for your being pregnant!!! Oh, an additional factor. Although the whole thing on-line and the entire books say miscarriage is better chance earlier than 12-thirteen weeks, my document mentioned it is honestly eight weeks. So if you'll get beyond the eight week mark it is gentle crusing!
