Hi all

Just had my first positive test this morning after period being late by 3 days, only symptom at the minute is what I can only describe as a dull period pain constantly.
is this normal? By the dates of my last period I’m roughly 4w 3d

I am convincing myself the tests are wrong but done one cheap one then another clear blue digital?!

Yes that's completely normal. Congratulations 🎉

Congratulations! It's totally normal to experience cramps, as the embryo settles itself into your uterus. I had cramps on and off until around 7 weeks if I remember right.

Yes totally normal, I had cramps on and off for a few weeks with my first. Midwife said if no bleeding and the pain is not severe it's normal.
Congratulations!

Thanks all, I’m just so shocked I’m convincing myself it isn’t true 😳
guess I’ll be having to contact the doctors tomorrow? 🫣

ive had period like cramps throughout my pregnancy. In my area you can self refer to maternity services, from 5 weeks pregnant, you don’t have to contact doctor.
