Hi guys, I'm 5+5 weeks and have my bloods on Tuesday with the midwife. I've been experiencing a sometimes slightly sharp, and at others dull pain in my lower right abdomen for a few days now. I know this is possibly my uterus expanding etc, but obviously I keep worrying! Absolutely no bleeding whatsoever though, apart from a very faintly browny (more beige) discharge in my pants the other day but only on one trip to the bathroom. I've also been struggling to do the toilet today and have a lot of wind!

Is anyone else due very beginning of December that they've calculated?? Are you having any symptoms? My boobs hurt ever so slightly but very randomly and I have again very random pangs of headaches?! I bet I'll wake up next week and be throwing up everywhere and have the sorest boobs ever! Hahaha, TIA ladies. More just looking for others who are the same or similar as me weeks wise etc :-) xx

@livfrncsca hi, I'm 5+6 today, so I believe were due around the same time (2nd of December for me). I understand completely what your on about, apart from sore boobs every now and then, a bad lower back and period like cramps (they were bad at the start but come and go every so often now) and needing to go the toilet more often, I havnt had any other symptoms! It's not uncommon for people to get nothing. Apparently symptoms start to kick in more at week 6 tho? So well find out soon I guess lol! I keep thinking maybe I'm not pregnant, but im now two weeks with no period (which never happens im always on time) and I have 3 pregnancy tests that say positive lol! I'm sure when I have my booking in appointment in 9 days time it will feel more real!
When did you find out?

livfrncsca · 07/04/2019 11:05

@1990carey hi my lovely!! Yes I'm due I think around the 3rd December, will find out exactly on Tuesday! Yeah my boobs are twinging every so often, I'm defo having a lot more wind and have wee pains in my lower right abdomen! I'm the exact same, I've taken 2 this week already and it's definitely a stronger line on the tests, so that's been making me feel a bit better but I keep worrying I'm not pregnant too. I found out last Saturday and I was already almost 5 weeks by then. Absolutely over the moon, just itching to get a wee look! I have an MRI on Wednesday (I have spinal issues, had correctional surgery in 2013) and think we'll be able to see baba on the scan! We're also planning an early scan privately just for reassurance. Congratulations to you! 😚

@livfrncsca oh wow, yah hopefully you'll get a little peek! I dont think I'll book a private early scan, just gonna wait things out and see how I get on I suppose! Congratulations to you as well!

Make sure you tell them before MRI you are so early I couldn't have one before 14 weeks although I was high risk so maybe different

I'm 6 +4 and I had sore boobs early on and now they have stopped hurting. I also have some cramps. I'm tired but think maybe I was always tired before. Last pregnancy I just felt hungover all the time. I don't feel so pregnant now. Have you been feeling dizzy at all?

Corrina19955 · 07/04/2019 15:40

Ime 5w1d and haven't really got any symptoms apart from feeling sick and tired how bright are all your positive tests.
Worries me as I have had 8 miscarriages 7 due to low hcg and a missed miscarriage in november just the no sore boobs worrie me as had them everyother time..

livfrncsca · 07/04/2019 20:22

@Loyaultemelie I had actually called my surgeon to say I wouldn't be able to have it done because I was pregnant, but she said it was fine so I'm not sure! I'm assuming because there's no radiation etc it should be okay? Fingers crossed!

@Blondielongie hi lovely, yeah I'm not really experiencing much but my tests are definitely still positive so I'm glad at least for that! I'm not feeling dizzy no, but I am having this thing that if I put my head back and close my eyes I feel like I'm falling lol, probably just me being overly worried!!

livfrncsca · 07/04/2019 20:25

@Corrina19955 oh I hope everything is okay! Keeping all my fingers crossed for you, this is my first pregnancy so I'm just praying it goes well! Good luck to you darling! X

@1990carey I hope so! I looked at some pictures on google and it's pretty crazy! Yeah we're gonna do the early scan just because my back is so unpredictable! X

Thankyou and I hope so fingers crossed and congratulations. X

Blondielongie · 08/04/2019 07:57

@livfrncsca are you going private for the early scan? I felt a bit sick last night. Didn't feel sick last time. Can't get out of bed this morning. I'm still not convinced it's ok though. Such a pessimist. When is your scan? I'll be 7 weeks on Tuesday. I don't want to wait another 5 weeks for the scan!

livfrncsca · 08/04/2019 08:35

@Blondielongie yep I think we may go private, I'm not sure if they'll want to send me for an early one through NHS due to health conditions. I was absolutely knocked out last night, so tired I couldn't move at all and same with me I could barely get out of bed this morning. I am so worried something is wrong too, it's so hard not to. And another 5 weeks is just :( I'm 6 weeks tomorrow

I've been really worried that somethings wrong as well, but I found his website helped me calm down quite a bit- datayze.com/miscarriage-chart.php?mode=table it basically tells you the percentage that you will not have a miscarriage each day of each week of your pregnancy. Its really helped keep me calm, knowing that I'm now under 17%. When I feel anxious I have a look at this and it makes me feel better. Hope it helps maybe?

Blondielongie · 08/04/2019 10:16

I posed a message but it disappeared. I've been looking at this one datayze.com/miscarriage-reassurer.php @1990carey I'm glad I'm not being paranoid alone!!

Corrina19955 · 12/04/2019 18:25
