Am 6 weeks pregnant after a MMC in April this year :(
Am getting achiness all around my lower stomach/pelvis & back.
It's not cramping..just achiness but it is worrying me. :(
Is this normal at this stage?
Thank you

Hi wifey I also had a MMC in April and am now pregnant again, 5 weeks. I have been having pains and aches on and off. I had some quite sore pains today and then realised it was just gas... From what I have read it is normal to have some aches and pains in the first trimester. Is this your first? It's my first so I'm wondering of this is how a proper pregnancy goes... I had little pain with my MMC when I was pregnant with it.

I hate all this waiting about, I wish I could have weekly scans to check things are ok! Hope you feel better. I think as long as pains aren't accompanied with bleeding then it's ok.

Ratata...sorry for your loss and congratulations on your pregnancy.
It's a scary time isn't it!
Thank you for the reassurance..I agree weekly scans would be fab! Will you have an early scan or wait til 12 weeks?
This is my 3rd pregnancy...I have a DS 2.5

We are going to have a private scan at 9 weeks, it still seems far away though! Fingers crossed for both of us :)

Ratata...that sounds a good idea. We have said we'd like an early scan 8-9 weeks. I completely agree...seems sooo far away.
Wishing us both healthy pregnancies
