8 weeks pregnant

Hello! Im 8 weeks pregnant. Going to see a gynae soon - is it normal to have no symptoms except for constant light cramps and as well as missing period? I had a very light spotting few weeks back but didnt think much as I wasn’t aware I was pregnant. thanks all in advance!!!

Every pregnancy is really different, so some mums genuinely have minimal symptoms while others are hit with nausea and exhaustion from week one. Light cramps can be normal as your uterus stretches, but since you've also had some spotting, it's good that you're seeing your gynae soon because they'll want to check everything is progressing well and rule out anything that needs attention. The main thing is to mention the spotting and the cramps when you see them, so they have the full picture and can give you proper reassurance or advice based on your scan.
