Hi girls,

So I am 7+5 weeks pregnant ( and I have health anxiety - basically always thinking something is wrong with me, checking symptoms etc ) as soon as I found out I was pregnant I felt exhausted and had nausea..
This Monday my leg started hurting ( could barely walk! ) and I had pink spotting and then it was brown (
only when on the toilet ) wasn't a lot and only when wiping.
Long story short after this happened I feel like I don't have nausea anymore? Breasts are sore ( but I feel like not all the time? )

Is this just me reading online too much and overthinking? .. I did book private scan which is tomorrow for a piece of mind.. Just wondering if anyone else experienced this.?

Hi hun, I had a bit of spotting around 5 weeks if you are worried contact epu
 
I was the same with my little girl .... the scan definitely helped. fongers crossed all is fine

anxiety is an invisible beast!! Sending you lots of cuddles !
 
I've been the same with this pregnancy. Worried a lot of the time. I think global pandemic doesn't help. We're living in anxious times. I have phoned my midwife a few times just to get reassurance and that's really helped.

I have called the number that my midwife gave me and the lady on the phone was so rude she made me more anxious! I don't think I will call that number ever again.. she said something like * even if this is a miscarriage there is nothing we can do as you are only 7 weeks * You are lucky then!

Some of them are terrible :(
I had those for my daughter so booked private scans. Spent a fortune but get better mentally! i still hate them two years later !!
