Going 6 weeks

I tested positive on a pregnancy test kit .. I tested 4 times at different days of the week, after I missed my period. Now I am going 6 weeks from my first day of last menses. I dont have common pregnancy symptoms like morning sickness and all. I only just experience metal taste in my mouth at times.. But recently I experience some aching pain on my lower back.. mainly on the left side.. is it serious? I have never really felt cramps during my period previously. Now I do sometimes experience cramp pain. I have not experience spotting or bleeding... Is it anything serious? When should I see the ob for ultrasound. Anyone has the same symptoms or experience similar situations?

Backaches and mild cramping are normal during early pregnancy as long as there's no heavy bleeding. You should book an appointment with a gynae soon to confirm the pregnancy and make sure everything in on the right track. Normally by 7 or 8 weeks should be able to see heartbeat already.
