Hi all. I’m about 6-7 weeks. Just wondering how everyone else is feeling?

I started of with no symptoms and no tiredness. But last couple of days - constant period like cramps, banging tension headache, shivery and acid feeling like a empty tummy:

Anyone else experienced headaches and stomach cramps? When do you worry and consult the doctor in case it could be something else or something wrong?

Any advice appreciated
Thanks

I’m 7 weeks pregnant. I’ve had cramps every day since before I found out I was pregnant. I was convinced I wasn’t pregnant because my cramps were so similar to period cramps. I also had some sharp pains over on my right hand side over the weekend. I rang the EPAU and they said cramps were normal and to take paracetamol for the sharp pain on my right, so apparently I’m not to worry!

I had a headache for a few days last week but that seems to have eased now. I’m shivery and cold all the time. I’m currently sat with a blanket round my shoulders. I’ve found I’m more shivery as I get hungrier, not that I can eat much because of the nausea.

But I’m not much further along than you and haven’t spoken to my midwife yet so I’m flying a little bit blind.

Hi @InTheNightWeWillWish, thanks for your message.

Sounds like we have similar symptoms, so guess nothing to worry about. I have not spoke to the midwife yet, they couldn’t give me the first appointment until over 12 weeks :(. So I’m blind to it all too. I am going to have a chat with the doctors in the meantime.

Hey @Wondering2021. I’m 8+3. The only symptom that I’ve had is headaches, a chill, cramping and headaches. Boob tenderness literally for week 5 and then is disappeared which frightened me but I’ve tried to keep calm. No scans as of yet so I’ve no idea if there’s anything wrong or not! As long as you’re not bleeding! You should be fine xx
