Upset tummy and the fear

[AuntieBrenda]

Just found out I'm pg, lmp was 15th jan.
For the last couple of days I've had a really upset stomach - griping pains, needing the loo etc
Is this normal in early pg? I can't remember what it was like with DS
It's getting me worried tbh and that's probably making my upset stomach worse
Any advice/ experience?
TIA

I had upset tummy and excruciating tummy pain for two months of pregnancy until 13-14 weeks when things settle down. I think it was just all the change. All the best x

No, I had an upset stomach the first few weeks as well. Unless it's becoming a major problem, I wouldn't worry too much. Mine eased off by the time I was 5-6 weeks. xx

Thanks both - I did a cheapo pg test earlier just to reassure myself and it was neg so I feel even worse now :(

If you didn't do it with FMU I wouldn't worry - even of anything had gone wrong you would still get positive pregnancy tests so either it was a faulty test or your urine was too dilute.

I've always suffered with upset stomach throughout the first trimester, I think its my body's version of morning sickness!

Right I am on the verge of losing it now - I did a clear blue digital just now and it was negative. It's over I think. I'm fucking gutted :(

Like rockchick said if it wasn't FMU it may well have just been too dilute to pick up the levels of HCG hormone. Try again with FMU in a day or two. Don't despair yet. xx

I just don't know what to think I'm hiding in my bedroom at the moment - DH keeps trying to talk to me but I've sent him to go,play with DS. I just feel so sad :(
Thank you for your kindness x

Auntiebrenda when I had a miscarriage it took 3 weeks for me to get a negative pregnancy test - if you have had no bleeding then your HCG levels wouldn't have started dropping even if things have gone wrong. Please stop doing tests that aren't first morning urine!

Hang on, you are max what 4+3? You could easily be getting negatives at this time of day. When I miscarried it took at least a fortnight for tests to change. And I don't see why they would before any bleeding at all.

Try and calm down and do a test first thing tomorrow.

Sorry that you miscarried Penguins
The negatives coupled with the stomach issues and the pains have got me spiralling a bit
Thank you for the kind words xx

It is ok. It was a long time ago now.

Try and rest and see what the morning brings.

I will - thank you x

Thanks to all who have taken time to reply - I'm alone here now so I appreciate the virtual company!

What the others said. Both my losses have brought up positives for weeks, it's unlikely that you'd be getting negatives before any sign of passing the pregnancy. Test in the morning and avoid the Clearblue - those digital tests can be tricksy. Good luck.

I'm up. Going to have to go do it.

Are you ok op?

Good luck op.

Still lying here. I know this is not the worst thing anyone's had to do but I am scared. What if it's neg? What do I do? So I need to go to the dr? All this is making me annoyed at myself I'm being a pathetic drama llama. I am going to do it now before everyone gets up.

Negative. What now?

No idea but I just wanted to give you a big online hug.

So sorry

Thanks x

When did you get the positive test, and was the one you just used the same?
I would wait another couple of days and test again.
Sorry, I have had a few false starts and know its a worrying time.

Auch I was hoping for you it would be positive and put your mind at rest. I'm sure a POAS expert will be along with knowledgable advice but have a virtual hug anyway ()

I had the+ on a clear blue digital last week. It said 1-2 weeks.
Tbh I think I had a chemical pg.
do I need to go to the dr now? I don't know what to do - I don't think I can just sit and wait IYSWIM

It does sound like a chemical pregnancy, it's just that the original test was too early, but you hadn't been pregnant. Your AF should come along soon, and hopefully next cycle will be the positive one. Sorry, but good luck for next month. Hugs x
