Questions about endometriosis and early pregnancy??

So I had been sent to the ER several times last week in the middle of the night for excruciating pain in my ovaries and pelvic area it felt like. I was also seeming to feel the pain deep in my colon. I have endometriosis so I had thought it just gotten really bad. On my 3rd visit they tested me and found out I was very early on in my pregnancy. It's been a few days since I found out and I'm still having bad cramping, and it worries me cause I don't want anything to happen to this baby! Is this normal? Will it go away?

Hi Hun firstly congratulations! I'm 6 weeks +3 pregnant and I'm also getting these pains. I've be reassured they are all my ligaments moving around and it's worse because of my adhesions. Have they booked u in for an early scan to check it's not ectopic? I've had a couple of bloods and got a scan Tuesday x x

I had the same when I was pregnant too and now have a beautiful healthy baby boy. They kept an eye on me too and I had early scans to make sure it wasn't ectopic. Ask your gp to refer you to the early pregnancy unit and they'll do the rest. Congratulations and good luck x

Hi there I had the exact same thing and that was before I had my endo removed but I would go to the doctor if it gets really bad or of you experience any bleeding just to be on the safe side x

Also I would explain and ask for early scan as I found unless you tend to be past 12 weeks they won't do much for you unless they suspect something like an eptopic x

I'm 5 weeks and under the early pregnancy unit for stomach pains, I've had bloods done and got a scan on Wednesday to check not ectopic. It's worth getting checked over for some reassurance, congratulations though :)
