Just found out I'm pregnant

Okay a few days ago I took a home pregnancy test and came back positive, I actually haven't had my period since the last week of October. My Dr. Doesn't have anything available till the 15th I'm so anxious to know if everything is ok and how far along I am. I feel like going to the hospital but I mean what will they do??

They will most likely do a urine pregnancy test and an hcg blood test. They may also do an ultrasound to try and date your pregnancy. I can’t tell you if it will be an over tummy scan or a transvaginal probe though

Ok. Thank you I haven't gone yet I keep thinking about it or waiting on my Dr appointment.

I would just try to relax as much as possible. I know it’s easier said than done though.

Yes ur right, I keep telling myself to just sit and relax and I just end up cleaning because I feel guilty sitting doing nothing huh

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Little girl turning herself sideways in next to me

My little girl tonight, has spun herself so she is lying sideways in her next to me, making me panic!

Is this normal at 4.5 months, do I just lie her back normally/vertically?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?
