Hi ladies,

I am roughly between 5 and 6 weeks pregnant, going by CB tests! anyway, I'm having a whole host of symptoms, tender breasts, cramping that come's and goes, sharp shooting pains, loss of appetite then all of a sudden starving! the list goes on, but the one symptom I am a little unsure about is when I cough.

When I cough my stomach is sore, as if I've done intense strenuous exercise, almost like the pain and soreness you feel after an ab workout in the gym!

I have resorted to google but that's a scary place! Only tells you what you don't want to hear! Please help x

100% happened to me and still is (Im 17 + 4), I think its called ligament pain. Its the ligaments stretching I believe. When I sneeze if I put my hand on my lower abdomen it doesn't happen as much.

Thank you so much for the reassurance honey! I just get panicky every time a new and strange symptom pops up Blush x
