Is this normal?

So I officially got my positive yesterday the test said 2-3 weeks pregnant

My scan is booked for the 23rd of March to check if there's a heart beat

And I've been having a few light pains and twinges

Not sure whether I'm over analysing my body or if this is normal

Any advice ladies please?

Hope everyone is coping well with there journey and keeping positive xx

Hi Emma

I got a BFP yesterday and like you have twinges and slight cramps. When I phoned clinic to tell them result I mentioned that and they said it was perfectly normal and sometimes the medication through the ivf process causes that and like the lady above said sometimes its just little emmie preparing to grow and set up home for the next few months.

I honestly didnt believe it yesterday, I was in utter shock and I made my partner bring another 2 tests home last night. I did one this morning and it was positive and said 2-3 weeks. My clinic however classes me as 4 weeks and a few days. Unsure how that works lol.

Hope the next few weeks go quickly for you till the viability scan.
