... as have mc a number of times, 4 before 6 weeks, so am not believing I'm pregnant until I get past 6 weeks.

Not sure how long I will hold out for, but thought I'd try.

Feels a bit weird posting in pregnancy, as don't feel it/believe it.

Just wanted to share my news with someone.

Forgot to say Heighho the MW suggested I drink alot more as it can help ease the cramping. I found the days I drank 2l or so my cramping was less than the day I drank very little due to feeling ill.

Heighho - I would echo the suggestion by opps about upping the amount of water you drink, cramping can be caused by dehydration, and with all the extra bloodflow at this early stage it could be that you just need to be drinking a bit more. Also you might have a urine infection that is not being picked up by the dipsticks (sometimes the urine needs to be sent for full anaylsis) so drinking more will help if this is the case too......

I had a urine infection last week, only ever get them when pregnant, so should have known last week that I was pregnant . It gave me exactly the same symtpoms as cramping in early pregnancy to start with.

I am getting on/off stomach cramping and back pain, at the moment with the uterine stretching. I have had it with all 10 of my pregnancies, regardless of whether they were successful or not. I hope this might reassure you, but now please go and get a big glass of water and drink it right down!

yes, sir, Rainbowdays, am drinking glass of water as we speak. I know I don't drink enough water, so you and Oops are probably right

Also people suggested on another thread to try to relax and believe in the best until there is evidence otherwise - so maybe we should start a new thread "Preg after multiple miscarriage, VERY cautiously optimistic" (also have told DH now, so thread title is wrong!)

afternoon
heighHo how are you today? have the cramps eased? i had a mini panic this morning as i got up and my boobs felt normal and then by the time i had put my bra on and started getting dressed they were throbbing again in all 5 of my MCs i had no preg symptoms at all so achey boobs and no appetite for me is an amazing feeling
there is a few multiple MC preg threads there but i would join you on one if you wanted to start a new one

Hi Panda, thanks for the message. Still getting cramping and pain, but am thinking it is now stretching and little embryo burrowing in as no blood yet

Have created new thread here as this thread is untrue now

Glad your breasts hurt again , weirdly mine did with my first pregnancy, but haven't with all the subsequent ones, maybe as they were well used for breast feeding

See you on the new thread x
