Hello dear
Understand your concern.
I think it is due to preparation of uterus for pregnancy that produce cramp.
Bloated may be due to the hormonal imbalance that produce reflex and you feel bloated.
Other cause of cramps may be:
Misscarriage: but it usually associated with bleeding
Ectopic pregnancy
Muscular pain
Hormonal changes
For safer side consult the gynecologist and do the following tests:
Pelvic examination and USG.
Advice for you:
Drink lots of water
Take frequent meal rather than large meal
Start mild exercise like brisk walking
Do not get to bed immediately after meal
Avoid spicy/fatty/salted food
Avoid excessive sugars in diet
Apply warm pad on abdomen
Warm shower
Relaxation and massaging
Take ginger along with commercially available enzyme preparation if you feel so much bloating
Hope this may help you
Best regards

Hi.
Cramps are a sign of your baby growing and developing. But I would recommend a visit to your doctor for an ultrasound scan do start off with because you are already done with your first trimester and need to undergo a few tests. But the cramps are nothing to worry about really.
Best wishes.
