Pain during early pregnancy?

After trying for what feels like forever I’m now in the early stages of pregnancy, week 4 according to the online calculator things.

So far I haven’t really had much pain other than the normal cramping I would expect in the run up to the period.

However this morning I started getting very intense stabbing pains in my bum - like the typical endo pains as if you’ve sat on a knife 😭

I started googling endometriosis and pregnancy just now but all the miscarriage stats were freaking me out so I’m not googling that anymore.

I guess I’m just wondering if anyone else experienced these kinds of pains at the start, and if I’m lucky enough to carry to term can I expect more pain through the next 9 months?

Sorry for kind of a long post, feeling very anxious and excited about this!

Congratulations

Have you spoken to GP or gynaecologist about your concerns?

It would more likely put your mind at rest rather than google. It can be great at times, but also a lot of crap on there.

There is the endo helpline as well.

Take care 🙂
