Ok ladies, this may be tmi but...
My DH and I had sex and I had an orgasm and then experienced cramping afterwards for about a minute. It freaked me out but now it's gone. Does anyone know what this was??

Question of the day for ya ladies.
Do any of you have a physically demanding job? Do you think I should tell my supervisor (even though its early) that im pregnant?
The reason I ask is like the rest of you, my energy is zapped and im exhausted. And I dont know about the rest of you but my mind seems a bit scatter brained and I am forgetfull.
My job requires me to carry and climb ladders, as well as lift heavy objects. We also use powerlifting equipment to haul heavy pallets of items and put them in the top rafters. I dont want to be one of those pregnant ladies that cant do anything for herself, or use it as an excuse but it does concern me. The day I found out I was pregnant, was the last day of work for the week for me. So im not sure what to pyhsically expect of my performance once I get their today.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day!!

I would tell them sooner rather than later as your job sounds very physical. I work in an ED and am wondering the same thing as it's a pretty full on job too.
If your body is use to doing heavy lifting you should be OK in your 1st trimester, it's once your bump starts to appear and you loose your muscle strength in you abdomen that supports your spine that lifting needs to be moderated. I am pretty sure lifting won't increase your risk of miscarriage either.
Once you tell them your boss should do a risk assessment for you and not sure what it's like in the US but do you have occupational health department in your company? they are usually involved in this and can basically set out what you can or can't do and where you can or can't work.
Hope this helps

Anyone else having backache? I injured my back years ago and have had problems with my back (and sciatica) on and off since then but today it's come on with a vengeance. It's a symptoms that I am really not enjoying as it can either be a normal pregnancy symptom or a miscarriage sign. I've no abdominal cramps at all though, so fingers crossed it's just a normal pregnancy symptom feeling a bit worse because of an old injury.
