Cramping and breast tenderness in early pregnancy, does it come and go?

[tigerlilt]

Hi,
firstly i’ll apologise for my hyper anxiousness, i’m a first timer and a worrier at the best of times!
I found out i was pregnant a week ago, currently 4 weeks + 5 days , and i can’t stop over analyzing absolutely everything my body does and panicking. I’ve been testing everyday and driving myself slightly crazy!

Firstly, i’ve been having some weird pains, i’ve not felt anything like it before, it’s kind of like shooty pain/ similar to trapped wind pain but in my lower stomach/ pelvis area (both sides alternating) and sometimes in my side/ back. I’ve been so worried about this and that these pains could mean something is wrong… is this normal? I probably get like a couple an hour!

Also i feel like i’m examining my boobs like a man woman! For about 3 days i had super sore and sensitive breasts and now it’s kind of gone! Is it normal for this to fluctuate at this stage?

Thankyou,

From an super stressed and anxious first time pregnant lady❤️

anyone?

Hey. My symptoms come and go all time and I've had positive scans with strong heartbeat. I know it's easier said than done but try to think positively, I'm the same constantly worrying that symptoms are fluctuating. Just keep telling yourself that you're pregnant until told otherwise.

@tigerlilt my boobs hurt a lot when I was first pregnant and then it just went away. I'm 20 weeks+3 now and they get bigger and smaller but haven't hurt since about 6 weeks.

I had shooty pains early on too, they went away at about 7 weeks and now I have pelvic girdle pain.

@tigerlilt i am exactly 4 weeks 5 days too and everyday i wake up and feel my boobs to "make sure" (not sure what i am making sure of haha)

I also have low level nausea and some off and on cramping

So anxious overall :( its a difficult time!

thankyou everyone ❤️ also just wanted to see what people’s opinions are on excersize at this stage? I usually do some cardio then some weightlifting at the gym but also super paranoid that could increase the risk of miscarriage! Also just to mention i have a double uterus, which i believe makes me slightly higher risk, hence the anxiety!

@tigerlilt from what i know you can continue with whatever you did before pregnancy but not start new exercises (but best to check with doctor if you are worried)
