CRAMPING :(

[taylz12]

Hey all,

I've recently found out I'm pregnant and I'm looking for reassurance absolutely everywhere due to the fact I'm experiencing quite severe cramping. I feel these both in my lower stomach (like bad period pains) and in my lower back. Im absolutely petrified im going to misscarry.

I've just gone back and read an old post I made like this on my previous pregnancy so im almost sure this is normal but im just so terrified.

The cramps sometimes feel like burning, pulling and general period pain.

Im about 4-5 weeks now so still very early. Im going to book an early reassurance scan for when im roughly 7/8 weeks im just so frightened im going back and forth the toilet constantly checking for blood because im convinced im misscarrying.

I don't really feel nauseous at all either which is worrying me.

Can someone please pass on some positivity or share their experiences if they've had something similar? 😩

I had awful cramps with both pregnancies. Both born full term and healthy.

I remember having period like cramps with my first daughter, quite early on, around the 4 to 7 weeks mark. It was a bit unnerving, but it did settle and then I started with the nausea and tiredness. Good luck x

I’m experiencing the same thing as you are I’m about 5 weeks, how are you feeling now ? Has it passed ?xx

Hey all

so I’m about 5 weeks I’ll be 6 weeks on Friday. I had a bit of cramping through the week and a bit last week but nothing to serious. I have just had the worst back pain and cramps it made sweat ( think this was me panicking) has anyone else experienced this ? Is it normal ? Please someone help me calm down 🤞🏻X

Ive had the same thing since my period was due (im 5 +4)
I called GP yesterday and she referred me to A&E as they wanted to rule out an ectopic pregnancy

I'm almost 7 weeks, first pregnancy, and had the same. A few bouts of severe cramping, especially after food, sometimes causing me to have a cold sweat!
If you can afford it, you can have a private scan with Ultrasound Direct for about £90.
