I had REALLY bad cramps in my first few weeks, it's the ligaments of your womb being stretched as it changes position. Shouldn't be long until they disappear x

 

[l_maclean]

Ive had that as well. Apparently its your body changing shape and getting ready. Everything I've heard so far is that unless its accompanied by bleeding - its nothing to worry about,.

Don't worry hun, cramps def seem to be common. I know it's easier said than done, because I'm a worrier I hope you're ok. It will just be stretching and your body making room for baby

me too dont worry its ok, cramps are normal as long as you are not in agony it should just be your bubba making room for itself. I am same term as you and crampy all the time lol

Dont worry xx i woke up at half twelve with the worst cramps so far and started to panic, i thought the worst but it's just body changes and it's fine today. I'm coming up to 6 weeks too If you have been constipated at all since your Pg digestion can make the pain seem worse. Wind passing while your cramping will be v.Ouchy! Xxx

[Samsgirl]

[Nurse 26]

Hope you are ok samsgirl, i'm sure everything will be fine, i know the nerve wracking feeling

 

[Samsgirl]

yeah i bet you do....it's horrible isnt it....xx

 

[faithangle]

Good luck samsgirl, the key hing here is you stated not painful I'm sure all is well xxx

 

[Nurse 26]

it sure is hun, i am finding this time ok though as i'm not bothering with symptoms or POAS, just getting on with things for next few weeks, what will be will be. xxx

 

[Samsgirl]

yeah, what will be will be...are you going to ask for an early scan? xx

 

[Nurse 26]

Yes hun, i will get an early scan same as last time, just not sure what GYNE i want to go to yet, as not really comfortable going back to my last one considering the circumstances. My london Dr has offered but dont want to travel far, will discuss it with my lovely GP when i make an appointment in a couple of weeks.

How about you hun? when is yours? xxx

 

[Samsgirl]

i am seeing doc on tuesday...first meeting with any medical type person this time round. i am hoping that he will refer me for a reassurance scan...he should do considering the mc and my age, hopefully anyway xx

 

[Nurse 26]

I'm sure he will hun, they are usually pretty good if you have had a mc, they were great with me last time and let me pick when i wanted scan. let us know how you get on, dont take no for an answer. xx

 

[Samsgirl]

i wont......going to tell him how i have been feeling quite uncomfy and crampy this weekend and its been a worry......if i get one this week, it should pick up a heartbeat by now shouldnt it? xx

 

[Nurse 26]

Yes usually the latest heart starts beating in 6.5 weeks, so try get one at the end of the week incase you are a couple of days out if you tell him how you are feeling and i'm sure he will put your mind at ease. xx

 

[Nurse 26]

i would say though some EPU's wont scan before 7 weeks just because development can vary and they dont want to upset people if they dont see even though everything is fine. xx
