Hi, need some advice.
I am just approaching 6 weeks pregnant. Since about a week & a half ago I've been having what feels like intense constipation cramps which have been coming & going as they please & gradually getting worse in intensity. I have been struggling to go to the toilet, it feels very blocked up in there. I ended up at the urgent treatment centre (walk in centre) the other day because I was doubled over in pain, rocking back & forth & these cramps would not budge.. felt like someone was giving Chinese burns to my intestines!! 😳 I was sweating profusely & threw up because of the pain! Anyway, doctor sent me home because as I wasn't bleeding or in any sort of pain at the time he saw me, it obviously wasn't anything urgent..
these have been affecting my daily & have had me up & down several times throughout the night in absolute agony. Bought some lactulose the other day hoping that may relieve any blockages I have but it hasn't! 🙁 spoke to the pharmacist today in hopes he could offer a solution but because I'm pregnant he won't suggest anything & has instead suggested I wait until Monday & call my GP, or ring 111 again which is what I did the other day. I suffer from IBS so I'm hoping it is due to that & not pregnancy related :/ has anyone else suffered severe cramps like this in early pregnancy??
