Hi Nic, I have been worrying myself silly but I have decided if i keep myself busy find something constructive to do i won't think about it as much. its true was out shopping and walking my dog this afternoon and didn't think about it! I actually feel quite happy. A midwife said to me we have a fear something will go wrong, not that we can feel that something is going wrong. need to curb that fear with keeping busy. Go for the early scan if you can get one and remember unless the pain or cramps are unbearable and don't stop it's nothing. The pulls,twinges in abdomen is uterus streaching means its growing and pain in tum or abdomen is trapped wind! 8wks the risk lowers dramatically 3% (1 i n 30) you nearly there! Dustyx
