when did you get your first pregnancy symptoms?

[bethoo]

i am 5 weeks pregnant and am in panic as i have no symptoms but mild AF like pains. is this a possible m/c?

no, i never really have any and am pg with my third baby.

i panic as already had 2 m/c and one was a missed so did not find out til my scan. is there a chance i could get one early? i hate finding out so early!! i have an 11 month old and do not remember having cramps or not though i had severe ones with my missed m/c.
so you never had symptoms with any of your pregnancies?

I got mild AF like pains with both of my pgs, and no symptoms till 7ish weeks. Try to relax, I know it's hard

calve-how long did they last for and were they constant or not? mine are not though they are quite regular

Hi Bethoo - I am getting AF like pain too and am also 5 weeks (know you from the Oct thread). It must be incredibly hard waiting after 2 m/c but what you are feeling is so so normal. I didn't get any symptoms until 7 weeks with DD and the AF pains are usually just your uterus stretching and growing. Its smaller than your fist normally and has to grow an enormous amount! If you haven't got any bleeding I would try to stay calm. I know how hard this is though...

thanks Sydney - i ma a bloody worrier. i await for nausea wiht trepidation!!!

I'm 29 weeks and at 5 weeks was convinced I was going to get my period as I had really quite strong period cramps, just like I was going to come on. Once I'd tested and knew I was pregnant I had no symptoms for a couple of weeks then nausea started. Cramps continued on and off well into the pregnancy. Was told it was ligaments and muscles moving and stretching.

i started to feel sick at about week 5, but i had period pains and thought i was having a m/c but they went. its normal to feel the normal period type pains early in pregnancy, dont worry. i'm 7 months now.

thanks everyone, your help has made me feel more positive, i am just awaiting my symptoms now!!

oh dont worry bethoo, they'll come! good luck with everything
