If it isn't sore, try not to worry. Tugging sensations are normal, with everything inside starting to stretch.

I had something similar I put it down to everything starting to move and stretch. Hadnit for a day or so and was fine again.

I was the same, I recommend finding a group for your due month and its great to share with people at the same stage as you as this I am now 13 weeks with my first and I have put out so many 'is this normal'

Congratulations and enjoy your pregnancy Smile

Bloody hell Nicolaplus1, I could have written your post myself. Feels like really early period pain but not as unpleasant. Did 2nd positive test today and have just booked in with midwife for early December. 1st pregnancy so I am CLUELESS! Think I am 5 weeks gone.

Nicolaplus1 · 11/11/2010 22:09

totally normally am also 4+5 and had this too last week and beginning of this.

i'm 11.5 weeks and I still have this! it's like a non-painful dull period ache and I've had it for weeks. MW said it was normal stretching pain but I don't think she was being particularly attentive. Other people have said they've had it too so i'm trying not to worry. she said not to worry if there's no bleeding.

7 days to scan!

I am 12 weeks tomorrow and have had the same since 5 weeks but i've also had quite a lot of brown spotting and my pain has been constant & uncomfortable.

Had a scan at 5+2, 6+2, private scan at 8+1 and another scan at 9+5 but that scan dated me at 10+3.

Was told to see my GP as they can't see any reason for it on the scans so i actually went yesterday. I had swabs taken, blood taken, urine taken and was given a course of Flucloxacillin which i am taking.

Nuchal scan is in 10 days but the GP is trying to get a consultant to see me before but this is because i had lots of complications in my first pregnancy 15 years ago!

It does seem mild pain is normal.

argylesocks · 12/11/2010 17:14

wow are all those tests for the spotting or just because of the pain?

my mw barely looked at me when i told her about mine. certainly didnt offer a scan!

glad to hear everything is fine :)

nicolamumof3 · 12/11/2010 18:43

wow cameli can't believe all the scans you've had. Think its fab you are getting this level of care, so they can get to the bottom of things. So often this is dismissed in early pregnancy.
