Pain in side - is this ectopic?

Got the BFP on Friday, started to get muscular pain in my side/front today, same level as belly button. Not acute.

I've got a Dr's appointment on Thursday, but has anyone had this before? Big fear that it's ectopoc.
Would be pretty p-ed off as had mc last month.

My ectopic started off as back pain...and a feelin of dizziness...when it eventually became a pain at the front it was enough to make me shake ans try not to scream

I nearly passed out in A & E.
If you are in any doubt get it checked out.

So sorry to hear about your mc. It is very unlikely that you would feel pain from an ectopic at just 4 weeks. Pregnancy produces all sorts of aches that are usually nothing so I wouldn't worry. I felt something similar on my right side and it ended up being fine. However, any pain should always be investigated and it is good that you are going to the doctor this Thurs.

Best of luck.

I panicked when I was first pregnant and felt this type of pain, but its normal to feel pain in one side when you become pregnant its probably the corpus luteum cyst which is a functional cyst thats important for producing progesterone.
But getting an early scan would set your mind at rest. Gd luck.
