I know these aren't the type of pains you are experiencing but stay with me. I also had a lot of period type cramping for the first three months (dur the uterus etc growing) and they are quite common also. When you are pregnant you can get a lot gas pains & constipation. These are probably what you are experiencing. A lot of women feel that they are showing when in fact it is just gas (as disappointing as that is!). You will probably notice them coming and going a lot in the coming months!

Good luck! Michelle
