6 Weeks Pregnant and in pain?

Im currently six weeks pregnant, Which im so happy about!!!

I'm having some dull achy pains in my side and lower tummy with some brown spotting. I have already spoken to my midwife and she said its nothing to worry about until i have red bleeding or severe pains, But im wondering if anyone has had some simliar symptons and stories :)

Also id love to have a birth buddy!! Someone who is due around the same time as me :) 16th October 2011!! Get in touch :D

Im a nervous mummy at the moment and would love to just feel abit more at ease. Thank you!

Update:

Your two days due before me :) With my first i had to be induced due to a scar on my stomach being too uncomfortable..But im hoping i go on my own this time around. Is this your first?

I'm not too worried about it but its nice to hear other people are having the same issue as me. She said its normal because its the uterus stretching for the lil one. :)

    When I was 6 weeks I also had cramping that seemed like it never went away. It kind of felt like dull period pains. My doctor said the same thing that it was normal and nothing to worry about unless you have severe cramping and red bleeding. I had no spooting but I have read that is also normal during your first trimester. With my first pregnancy I had a miscarriage and you will def. know the difference between your cramping and miscarriage cramping. I would say your fine. Good Luck and Congrats!

    I was 6 weeks last Thursday. :) Due date October 14. :)

    I've been having the same period like cramps for a while now. It seems to be normal, but it is a little scary! I haven't had any spotting, but from what I understand the brown spotting is completely normal. I believe it's implantation bleeding, although I could be wrong. :)
