I'm going through the same thing currently. I think it's due to stress. I'm usually pretty regular and am heavy the first couple of days. This period is wierd though. My period is light spotting and brown with light cramping right now. I've been wearing a panty liner the last 4 days which is wierd -- I usually need a super absorbent tampon or pad. So, I am calling my doc and I will tell you what I find out. But everyone's body is different.

Menstrual cramps are common but they are not a normal part of healthy menstruation - it's when you have menstrual cramps that there is something wrong. Taboos surrounding menstruation have a major effect on menstrual cramps so those who are more comfortable with their period are less likely to experience cramps, also note that most people can prevent cramps with lifestyle changes.
Yes, but after the time for your first period after conception they are probably not uterine/menstrual cramps but from other causes.

Menstrual cramps are common but they are not normal - most people can prevent menstrual cramps with lifestyle changes, but if severe you should talk to your doctor about finding the cause. Tampons can increase menstrual cramps as they can expand into the cervix. You may be better using menstrual cups, softcups, or pads if you find tampons increase your menstrual cramps.
Light spotting with cramps but no period means it's time for a home pregnancy test.
Yes, Tylenol will help ease the pain of menstrual cramps - all non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs all work on menstrual cramps as it is inflammation caused by hormones that cause uterine contraction which cause menstrual cramps. It is however far better to prevent yourself from getting menstrual cramps to begin with, often lifestyle changes alone are enough to prevent menstrual cramps.
