For the past couple of days, I've had all-around abdominal cramping and now I'm starting to get worried. I'm going to call my OB tomorrow but maybe you ladies could help me calm my fears. Is cramping normal at 10 weeks? It feels like PMS and period cramps but I'm not spotting or any of the like.

I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
