A constant round of funny feelings

I've had constant funny physical feelings (not to mention the dramatic emotional ones!) since finding out about pg at 4 weeks. I thought I would list mine here to see if anyone else could relate! Am 11.4 weeks supposedly and scan is on Monday.

Stretching/stitch like feeling: At around the 6-7 week mark I had so much of this, mainly in the left side (felt like in the ovary area but surely can't be?) and some on the right. Fear was that it was ectopic but no severe pain or other probs.

Nausea: Was all day on and off but within the last 2 weeks it's generally gone. Fear is the baby is no longer.

This week. Occasional weird but slight period-like pain and one large, very quick popping feeling in the left side that made me yelp. What the hell was that?! Fear is something popped, twisted, untwisted...no bloody idea.

Also pink discharge after sex. Just once, one tiny bit when wiping (sorry if TMI!) and nothing else.

Not 'feeling pregnant' since sickness gone. But boobs v full and a definitely swelling of the stomach still - worse at the end of the day so more like bloating. Even in morning now there's a distinct curve. And eating like a horse. Still some tiredness at night but generally feeling quite energetic again after initial tiredness.

Scan Monday: biggest fear is there won't be anything there. Second biggest fear is waiting for the NT results to come back.

So many bloody fears and funny feelings!

Oh I forgot to add fluttering feeling. Just once, the other day. Surely way too early to feel baby move.

pink discharge is just your cervix cells as they more sensitive - i bled a few times after sex

you will be so shocked when you see it bouncing bout on yr scan!

I had weird stomach pains etc but i think they are mainly from trapped wind and constipation!

I have thought about trapped wind etc but it's just that they are all totally new feelings! It's so bizarre, the whole experience...

i know! but then I think maybe I just never notice trapped wind before cos I never had it? and then I wonder if I imagine it. I am 18 weeks now too, you would think I would know for sure

Such a learning curve isn't it!

i cant believe your bones and muscles can change so much - if it happened normally it would be like you had a horrible accident!

LOL! that made me chuckle. Which is quite good considering am sitting here feeling like crap and worrying about now brown discharge (sorry for the TMI) and weird feelings in the nether region. Roll on that damn scan!
