Is this normal or am I paranoid.......

[wee lor]

I am 6 weeks pregnant after 2 mmc, that last in feb this year.

My breasts have been so so hard n sore but today they have softened although they are still tender just not as much? I am worried that this a sign that something is wrong.

I know I probably sound like a paranoid irrational woman but I can't help obsesse over every symptom, sign and pain.

Have been experiencing cramp like pains which were freaking me out but it turned out to be wind (oops lol).

I am due for a scan on 7th jan but thinking of phoning EPU tomorrow and asking to have 1 sooner but dont want them thinking I am losing the plot, although I probably am lol.

Thanks for reading

It's normal to feel paranoid i had a miscarriage before having my son and well like after 9 weeks i started to feel less paranoid but i hope everything will be okay.

I have had some discoloured discharge this morning also, so phoned EPU and I am waiting on a midwife to phone me back. Its just so nerve racking when its something you want so badly. But I am trying to stay positive

I am in the same boat, and I know what it feels like to be worrying all the time! There's a really good book called "Your pregnancy week by week" which has a section on the declining risk of miscarriage as the weeks go on - by week 8, if they can pick up a fetal heartbeat on the scan, the risk has fallen to just 3%. If you can hang on until then, maybe that might be reassuring? I will send you lots of positive vibes!

Hi all i am in the same boat i had a m/c end oct and just had positive test. I am worried sick now as i have pains and thinking the same is going to happen again. My pains are in my stomach. I am passing wind but dont think all the pain is wind but how does one know if it is wind or not! Hope all goes well for you.

thanks for replying.

Just to update, midwife called me back yesterday and booked a scan for Monday as they refuse to scan before 7 weeks. So I felt a bit relieved at that.

However, got up this morning and had really bad cramping, bad lower back pain and a lot more spotting (but not bleeding), called EPU again for advice and they said that they wouldn't see me until Monday and that cramping/spotting is common in early pregnancy but I thought they would at least test my hcg levels or something but no. I have just to take paracemol as in the words of the midwife " if i cant feel the pain i wont worry as much", WTF!!!

I dont think some midwifes understand the pain of suffering from preg loss. I have appt with my GP for advice tomorrow as the cramping/back pain is not easing and the spotting is getting heavier when i go to the loo

I am trying to stay positive but its so hard.

Wishing you all luck with your pregnancies xx
