Pain in stormach that won’t settle no bleeding

I’ve tried to book a scan today because I’m 14+1 but they don’t have any private scans till Friday. Midwife said I could go to hospital but I’m too early for maternity unit and they won’t be able to do anything as I’m only 14 weeks and they won’t scam me. So what do I do I’m so worried

What type of pain is it? Could just be your uterus stretching

Avatar

I've had stomach cramps (debilitating) for weeks a few weeks ago at 14 weeks it radiated all over was contraction type pain but not isolated to my uterus... this week it came back bur was solely my uterus like period pain that came in waves like contractions I'm 18 weeks
This is my second baby and never experienced it before but the baby is fine. Midwife said could be anything from stretching to gallstones
For reference I was lying on the floor almost screaming in pain.. a and e didn't seem concerned and sent me on my way
Try not to worry as scary as it is xx

They absolutely can scan you, but won't do it immediately. If you're in the UK you'd need to be referred to the Early Pregnancy Unit by your GP, or go to A&E and they'd revert you from there. You'd then get a scan the following day.

I don't know if they'd refer you if there's no bleeding, but worth a shot if you're really worried. Alternatively go further afield to look for a private scan. Best of luck xx

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
