[kezzyk8686]

Hi girls I'm 29 I'm new to mums net and motherhood ????
I only found out on Thurs i was preg after being on yasmin since 14 and being of 11 months it finally happened ????????
I really thought period was coming with the cramps now I had test and know I still can't relax the cramps come and go like period is coming I keep checking for blood .
Has anyone else experienced this at 5 weeks? I'm also going to toilet more frequently and not for a pee ! I can't get excited cos I keep worrying about ectopic etc as I foned doc on Fri because I have been on tabs for long time for arthritis in spine I was worried bout taking them ..anyways I know I'm rambling lol sorry! .. I had mention cramps and she brought up the ectopic ???????? I just keep expecting to see blood any other ladies had these experiences??
Much love xxxx

Congratulations.
Its normal to feel worried. When I was expecting my daughter I was worried sick and couldn't enjoy it until after the scan.
Hopefully you can start to relax sooner and have a worry free pregnancy. Have a look on the antenatal section there should be a thread for people due around the same time as you that might help to speak to people who are at the same stage as you.
Good luck OP :)

I had terrible cramping at 5 weeks til about 11 weeks! It's just everything growing and stretching. As long as you have no bleeding I wouldn't worry it all sounds completely normal!
Congragations

Thank you! Good to know everyone has the worrys!
Oh I will have a look thanks for ur advice xxx

Thank you as well frillsandspills x hard to relax when i have these cramps x

I was the same, but you will get used to them eventually (I did anyway). I actually mentioned to my GP that I was worried at 11 weeks because my cramping stopped, she just laughed! It does feel like you're about to have your period at any moment which is scary and causes a lot of knicker checking!
