I am 6 weeks pregnant. At about 4 weeks, I had light brown spotting for 2-3 days. It only showed up when I was using the bathroom. I was worried since this is my first pregnancy. Then, the next week I was feeling cramps in the evening for about 4-5 days. I haven't felt the cramps for the last couple of days and I don't know what to think. Part of me is worried b/c I was used to feeling the cramping and now I don't. Is it normal to feel cramping around the 5th or 6th week?? I am very curious and would really appreciate any feedback I could get. Thanks!!

I suggest you get as many pregnancy books as you possibly can, it is always hard to tell what is normal and what isnt during pregnancy especially your first. If you are worried about something during your pregnancy don't hesitate to ask your doctor. In first stage of pregnancy your hormones are all over the place and you may feel many different things, you may be a big grouch, tiredness, nausea, weeing all the time, unusal pains, sore breast..etc.
