Hi everyone. I’m freaking out and need some reassurance.
I’m 12 weeks 5 days pregnant and have woken up with quite strong pain low down in my tummy, right where I imagine the baby is (just above my pubic bone). Had my 12 week scan 2 days ago and everything was perfect, but I can’t stop worrying and can’t shake the feeling that something is wrong. On top of this, my symptoms are seemingly getting better, I just feel kind of hungry and empty rather than sick. The last time I was sick was the morning of my scan 2 days ago. My boobs also don’t hurt as much as they have done.
I have had 2 miscarriages prior to this pregnancy, the second was at 11 weeks and started exactly like this, I woke up in the morning with cramps, went to the loo and was bleeding. I know my history with this will be clouding my judgement and I’ve read lots of stories of people who had pain at this stage and everything was fine, but I just cannot get over the feeling that something’s not right.
my local EPU require a referral from a gp, both times I miscarried I had to wait a full day at least before being seen. I just want something now. I wish I could go in there and just get them to quickly scan and see everything’s ok then I’d be on my way! Even considering getting a Doppler even though I know they are bad.
I hate this feeling! What would you do?
