I’ve got no experiences of this, but I just wanted to say, from what I’ve heard/read it’s meant to be very normal.

I’ve been getting cramps on and off but I’m only 5 weeks.

I think when you’ve have fertility treatment, and experienced miscarriage it really takes any enjoyment out of pregnancy as you can’t help but go into over drive with your thoughts.

Hope you’re doing ok. Try not to worry (easier said then done) and do something relaxing for you.

Thank you it is scary and does take the enjoyment out of pregnancy after a loss. Hence why I post here to keep me sane as this group is so supportive 💖 congratulations on your pregnancy and I pray it goes smoothly for you xxx

Hey lovely, this sounds normal to me. I’m sure everything is fine and your lil one is just making more space. But of course check with clinic for reassurance xxx 💕

in reply to Peanutchips

Hi thanks for the reassurance hun. I have a dating scan tomorrow so just hanging on. Last scan I had was private and was measuring 11.5 but obviously dating scan will be more accurate. Xxx

Hi Eram12,

Congratulations on your pregnancy!

From my experience, The symptoms you are experiencing are very normal. They are caused by the extension of your womb and your ligaments which are loosening to make room for the baby to grow. I had similar pain throughout my pregnancy last year. I ended up seeing a physiotherapist who gave some exercises to do which helped a bit. I wish you all the best. X

Thanks everyone for your support. Had my dating scan and baby is measuring 13 weeks. So happy ☺️

Lovely news! I’m getting my knickers in a right twist over my 1st scan which is a week today. So it’s helped me today seeing a positive post. Thank you xxx

in reply to Kitty230515

Awww I'm so glad it helped you. And good luck 👍 xxx

Glad scan went well, always a massive relief. 😁 I had lots of twinges with my daughter- the midwife warned me at 16 weeks to expect period pains as the baby goes through a big growth spurt. I hope you can now enjoy the pregnancy xxx

in reply to

Thankyou ❤️ It is such a relief told our 5 year old daughter today and she keeps kissing belly 💖😊.

How you getting on? Xxx

in reply to

Aww how cute she must be so excited to be a big sister 😍 so happy for you. I’m good thank you. Clearblue has shown progress in HCG levels so far so good still early days ( only 4 weeks) 🤞🏻 due same time we were 3 years ago ( but had a chemical pregnancy) I’m hoping time will go faster running after our 13 month old daughter!!! 🤣 xxx

in reply to

She is very excited bless her 💖 aww if your HCG is getting stronger then that's a really good sign! At least you got your daughter to keep you busy ❤️xxx
