Having cramps once you're past 37 weeks may mean you're in the early stages of labour. At this stage your pregnancy has reached term, so the cramps are a normal part of your body gearing up to give birth.
Abdominal Cramps. Some women experience cramps early in pregnancy. This is usually due to the fertilized egg, or embryo, implanting into the uterus. Implantation occurs 8 to 10 days after ovulation, which is 4 to 6 days before a missed period would occur.omen who develop these symptoms before a missed period are, likely, very in tune with their body and are sensitive to even the tiniest hormonal changes. These very early pregnancy symptoms may occur up to a week before there are enough pregnancy hormones circulating in the body to give a positive pregnancy test result.
