I'm worrying as it feels like a light period feeling although I've not bled. Also really constipated and bloated. Has anyone else felt like this?

Hi , I'm 5 weeks 4days and I have had little twinges I've read up and it's quite normal to feel things . The feeling sick kicked in over the weekend too 😳 But not been too bad today . I have down loaded an app on my phone pregnancy app and it's very good in telling you things that is normal to feel at certain stages / days . Try not to worry and take it easy xx

I'm using pregnancy + on my iPhone. Only mild twinges but last week felt a bit achey . Was very bloated last week that comes and goes . But it's all very normal xx I've read a lot of people have still felt like there going to start a period and scanned and been fine too . It's just our bodies changing x

Had it all for awhile the constipation is probably a lot of the reason for the pain. My midwife told me to take lactolose got it from boots been much better now. X

When I was pregnant I spent the first few weeks running to the loo to check if my period had started - I had constant period like cramps and also cm made it feel like it had arrived. My hubby used to call me Knicker Twitcher! All was well though, we had our little girl

It's probably your uterus growing , quite normal to have twinges etc

Yes I feel your pain we will be 7weeks Friday an I've felt like that for weeks I've started taking fybogel which has helped a bit but tastes rank lol xx I'm hoping once I stop the crinone gel I won't be as bloated anymore x

Hi sum1sweeta - how are you feeling today? I felt exactly the same and the midwife said this was all normal. Are you on progesterone? That makes the bloating etc 10 x worse! Hopefully it will start to ease for you soon so you can start to relax a little x x x

Hi sum1Sweeta. Sounds like a pretty common reaction to me. Try taking some "Fybogel" which should help with your bowels and cut down any bloatedness. Hope you soon feel better. Diane
