Sharp pain when turning over in bed

Hi everyone

After 4 failed ivf transfers we have some how managed to get pregnant naturally for the first time ever, I’m 5 weeks pregnant and freaking out about the smallest twinge.

However in bed this morning I had a sharp pain in my left ovary area when I turned over in bed. I’ve had this pain before but not when I was pregnant. It stopped once I stopped moving and relaxed but now I’m worried it’s something sinister.

I’ve read about round ligament pain but thought it was but later on than 5 weeks? Has anyone else had this before?

Weird twinges are really normal, everything is starting to shift around, plus your super aware of every little niggle that you would have brushed off.

Hope everything goes well for you x

Yeah that’s really true! Every twinge I worry but if there was nothing I would worry about that too so no winning! 🙈I spoke to the midwife who said the same thing so feeling reassured. Thanks so much for your reply xx

I had IVF and currently 23 weeks pregnant. I know at the start I had these weird twinges too, including my left ovary and constantly worried about everything. I hope that like me, you’re hyper vigilant and understandably anxious about everything and that all is fine. Aches, pains and twinges are completely normal. Glad you spoke to your midwife - they are a great help.
