Achey uterus

[Mommy2be20]

Hi ladies :wave:
I'm back in the waiting game again. I had an ectopic in 2010, which left me with one tube. Since then I've had my DD, but I can't remember exactly what my early symptoms were like. My uterus feels really achey and almost as if its burning, it's not unbearable but awfully annoying! Anyone else experiencing this? Since I only have one tube left, I'm a panicky mess til I know we're in the clear. Keeping positive though

Since you have had some issues with pregnancy before, (and I know this from experience) you are more aware of everything uterine/ovarian/pg related. So that might be part of it. And being only about 5 weeks it looks like according to your ticker, it's likely you might be experiencing something related to implantation. My hubby also pointed out, when I was freaking out about cramping, that things are changing in there-your endometrium is thickening, your hormones are climbing at a near exponential rate, and it doesn't take long for the little bean to outgrow your pre-pg uterus size so there's some stretching going on too. I'd try not to worry too much unless you start spotting and/or have MAJOR pain on the side with your remaining tube. With your history, I'm assuming you are going in to see your doctor sooner rather than later? Hopefully they'll order up an early u/s to confirm your tube is clear. Good luck! FX

Thanks hun! I try to keep cool by reminding myself exactly that, there's so much happening in there. I see my doc tomorrow, gonna push for an early scan although I feel pretty certain all is well, same gut feeling I had with DD, I just wanna hear it for sure x

I had the same. Luckily my friend was pregnant at the same time so she could tell me it was all normal. Achy uterus, achey cervix, shooty pains, dragging feeling. Early pregnancy I couldn't even sleep on my tummy as it was tender from the outside. Was all normal though. xx

That's reassuring thanks! I have a scan this Thursday so counting down now, but feeling good about things x
