constantly overthinking!

[torialulu83]

Hi all, I have recently found out that I am expecting my second baby. From the dates I am around 7 weeks. Although my pregnancy tests were very faint, is this a sign of something not going well? I am exhausted and tender breasts but other than that I don't really have any other symptons. Anyone else like this? I am paranoid something will happen as with my first I had sickness and more symptons.

Sorry I am a natural panicker!!!

Being 7 weeks is a good sign! What tests are you using?
I found my tests never really got very dark. I stopped taking them and at 6 weeks had an early scan where everything looked well. I am no longer POAS and feel so much better for it.

I check every time I go to the loo that I am not bleeding. I find that's more positive as I'm finding positives through the day rather than starting off with feeling negative x

thank you! I used to supermarket tests and a digital one that said I was 2-3 weeks but I calculate as 7 now from my last period. No bleeding - touch wood and extremely tired. I forgot how tense the first trimester is!xx

Yes its perfectly normal and I am over thinking LOADS at the minute. Some people dont get any symptoms at all! Its perfectly natural to over think.

I'm 6+2 and no symptoms other than my bra feels a little tighter! I also had an early scan on Wed (was 6wks) and all is going ok I think with a heartbeat xx

Thank you for responding.

Unfortunately I have miscarried. I started bleeding frequentbut light on 8th. I went for an early scan (my dates said I was 7 weeks) the sonographer was lovely and could only make out something very tiny, at a push she said it looks possibly like 4 weeks. I was advised to go back again in 3 weeks, but by 10th I was bleeding heavy and hormone levels were down I continued with severe cramps and heavy bleeding for three days. I have been advised to take a test gain in three weeks but everything points to a miscarriage. I just knew something wasnt right this time

I want to wish you all the best of the luck, the scary part is the first trimester. Please dont be put off by what has happened to me, you are all doing great and so many go on to have wonderful pregnancies xx
