Hello and good afternoon. Thank you for your question.
For your information, newly mothers usually meets their doctor for pre-natal checking as soon as they acquire their positive results of UPT, meaning that. Hence, you may visit your doctor anytime after the results, but an average of new mothers got their first appointment during 6-12 weeks into pregnancy (due to technical issues; schedule etc.)
Regarding your recent cramping, it is normal for pregnant women to experience mild cramping during the first trimester or as early 1-2 months into gestation. However, we suggest that you meet your nearest doctor if you experience severe cramping and bleeding during any period of your ongoing pregnancy.
We hope this answers your question.
