I am scared

[babybefore30]

Have been getting mild cramping (like period pains) for the past two nights - spoke to EPU and they want me to come in and have a scan. Could I be loosing the bean.

don't worry just yet hun, i've been having period pains since before i knew i was pregnant, i think its just your uterus stretching and getting ready for baby, do go get checked out just to be sure though, good luck xxxx

Hopefully scan will put your mind at ease... Good luck!

I wouldn't worry too much hun, I asked the community MW yesterday about this and she said that as long as you aren't experiencing excruciating pain then it's most likely ligament stretching, etc. If you're worried then obviously see your GP. I hope the scan will put your mind to rest.

I had cramps up until last week. The midwife said as long as they aren't stabbing pains it should be ok. Hope all goes well xx

I know it's easier said than done, but try to remain positive.

just popping in from 2nd, i had period cramps all throughout my first tri and a couple of weeks into 2nd most of the time it's usually your uterus stretching and making more room for bubs. i know its hard hun but try not to worry too much. hope everything goes ok for you

Thank you for all support had my scan today which was terrifying but all is fine and my little bean's heart was beating so feel so much more at ease and have promised hubby that I will stop googling and try and enjoy my pregnancy. Have been put back a little so only 6 weeks 4 days.

Glad scan went well. I'm trying my best not to google anymore and not to worry, but easier said than done!

I started getting real bad pains towards the end of first tri when I moved too quick or if I coughed or sneezed. I felt like someone was stabbing me! Turns out its just ligament pain and totally normal, just another one of those wonderful pregnancy things lol!x

So glad you got to see the HB. Don't worry about the dating, little beanie with catch up when they do a later scan, embryos go through growth spurts too!
