Try and not think of them as 'period pains' but rather 'womb twinges!'
The pains in the early stages are very much like period pains, only worse (well they have been for me anyway!) 
It seems like they are just really random and can happen at different times as your body adjusts to the little one growing inside you...

ohh forgot to tellyou hun..do u remember ur "ask zoltra a question" and i asked if i would get the nursery nurse job........well i got it but i cant find the thread in TTC 
he also said id have a 2008 BFP ....correct again My pains have stopped and I am a bit worried but have made a deal with myself to stop worrying.
With my 1st PG I had pains for longer- but maybe becasue I've been PG this year the pains aren't as noticable?? Hmmmmmmmmmm

With my first pg, I got my bfp at one day late, and had gone to bed with a period pain two hours before - thought it was going to come! Then things cleared up and I tested. BFP! I had "womb twinges" for the first month or so.
The second pregnancy which I miscarried I had none of that but on the last day when the pregnancy actually began to fail, I had a bad pain in my right side that felt like a stitch. It lasted for more than a day and I had to go lie down with this one.
With this pregnancy - which I am almost scared to believe - I'm having little twingy pains on either side from time to time.
I have read that - if your pain is severe, accompanied by bleeding or lasts more than four or five hours, go see the doctor or to your ER. Otherwise, twinges are normal.
I know - what's severe? It's hard to tell. But I would say that "severe" is a pain that is enough to bother you, make you want to sit down and put your feet up.
And at the end of all that...if you are worried, see your doctor. No substitute for an expert's advice. You may be afraid of wasting his or her time, but no worry is a waste of time. You're better off when you are reassured and relaxed.
