Heya, i'm around 4 weeks pregnant and over the last couple of days I experienced persistant back pain that's near my gallbladder and some pain around the middle of my stomach but it's all been on the right side. I have also had some period like pains in my abdomen that comes and goes but it's the back pain that has been pretty persistant. Has anybody else experienced this? This is my second pregnancy after a miscarriage that happened a year and a half ago. I'm so terrified that's it's happening again and have read horror stories of an ectopic pregnancy. Please help ):

I had that at 3 1/2 weeks and everyone kept telling me it was 'normal' and within 12 hours I was in hospital with a ruptured ovarian cyst. Not to scare you or say that is what you have but if your worried go get checked at a&e could be nothing or could be something x

I'm sorry to hear that, what happened in the end. Was everything okay? X

If it continues, Talk to docs, get refferal to epau, they can test if hcg levels are going up as expected.

It could be you have pulled a muscle/stretching but you need your mind put at rest. The liklihood is at 4 weeks they won't scan as too small to see.

I've been in a similar situation and it didn't end as i hoped. Suspected ectopic that sorted itself out safely thankfully. I am now 18months later nearly 8 months pregnant but it has felt like a long wobbly road.

I hope it's not that but I have a horrible feeling it I'd. I have an appointment at the hospital tomorrow so fingers crossed.
