Hi,

I've never written anything before but due to having on going pain on my left abdo I need reassurance!!

I've been having it on / off since finding out but today feels much stronger than what I'm used to. Is this normal?

Thanks

Hi there

Try not to worry, cramps and pains in very early pregnancy are very common. If they persist, become unmanageable, you get shoulder tip pain, or you start bleeding fresh blood you should immediately access help from A + E to rule out an ectopic pregnancy (which is rare), but needs to be ruled out.

Hope this helps?

Best wishes

Katherine
