Can you have cramps at 8 weeks?

Cramping during the early stages of pregnancy is common, and can occur at 8 weeks.

8 weeks of pregnancy marks the beginning of the second month, and during this time, the uterus begins to expand and grow to accommodate the growing fetus. This expansion can cause cramping and discomfort. Additionally, hormonal changes during pregnancy can also contribute to cramping.

It is important to note that cramping during early pregnancy is often normal and not a cause for concern. However, if the cramps are severe, persistent, or accompanied by other symptoms such as heavy bleeding or fever, it is important to consult a doctor.
