I’m sorry that must be really hard and you must be second guessing everything. So sorry for your losses. Fingers crossed for you. Is it sorta stabbing type pains? If you look up lighting crotch / fanny daggers there both common in early pregnancy (and the whole way through tbf)I I get this and did with my first pregnancy too.
I’ve had the same pains! it feels like cramping, and can sometimes be sharp. It makes me nervous, have used the NHS website a lot!
I had this too! Quite painful period like pains. I went to a&e just to be sure and they ended up sending me straight over for an internal ultrasound. Although I'm too early to see a heartbeat etc (6 weeks), she said the gestational sack and egg sack all looked healthy for 5 weeks pregnant. Apparently these cramps are extremely common and normal and can Apparently be worse if you've been pregnant before also! Get checked out if it'll ease your mind, but I would say its completely normal if no blood with the cramps xx
@Nicola Hey Nicola! Thank you so much your comment. It's as if something is pulling my uterus from both sides 😂
@Daisy Thank you so much Daisy🤍 I appreciate your help! I will definitely get an appointment
I have the same pains! Seen a few people say the same too. Seems completely normal from what I’ve read. Someone said growing pains..
The cramping is your uterus stretching and growing. Also implantation is the embryo and placenta basically dissolving your uterine wall to attach itself securely which also I’m assuming is not pain-free. I find it helps to try and picture that when I have them so i can view it as a reassuring thing as the baby is obviously growing. If you have any accompanying blood then obviously go get checked out but otherwise it’s not a bad sign!
Light period pains is normal during pregnancy but if you are worried definitely go to the dr to check. Even just to ease your mind xx
