Strong pains at 6w2

I went to the Epu Monday as I had uncertainty on my dates, all was fine everything measured for 5Weeks5 days, I'm now 6+2 tomorrow, would I be rude going back in again as these pains have been excruciating I know it's not ectopic but I have had two previous miscarriages so I'm worried again, I've had no bleeding just a sharp burning tearing pain in my stomach for the past 6 hours.

Have you taken any painkillers? As they will ask this, if you have and the pain is still ongoing then i would go back.

I have yeah the pain is now travelling down my legs but no bleeding so I think maybe it's a good sign?

I would still go and get checked if the pain is still there after pain killers, no point sitting at home worrying and they might be able to a) reassure you and B) give you something to help manage the pain.
Pregnancy especially early is such a worrying time, i only had slight cramps when i was pregnant with my first, however with my second i had sharp stabbing pain in my right side and had an early scan lucky all ok, but i did continue to get it and sneezing and coughing was so painful, the pain wasn't continuous tho.

I think I'll ring 111 and just see what they say because I don't fancy going up now and I know the Epu is appointment only maybe they could get me an appt for tomorrow? And thank you really appreciate the advice x

Hey they just said to me to ring up the Epu in morning and come in for an appointment but I can't get through yet so I'll keep calling I know it's not a walk in service today, so hopefully they'll see me. I'll let you know once I've been x
