Hi Johannapipo,

Some cramp-like feelings in the lower abdomen are quite common in pregnancy, and are often the feeling we get from implantation or from our bodies starting to stretch. However, in pregnancy we're also susceptible to urine infections (read more here nct.org.uk/pregnancy/infect...

I recommend seeing your GP to be sure you are treated if there is an infection. If you want someone to talk to, you can also call the NCT helpline on 0300 330 0700.

Hope this helps!

All the best,

If you're 10 days late you are more like 5 weeks pregnant by the way...

I've been to doctors and been sent to hospital just to make sure the pregnancy isn't an ectopic one. They have been taken my blood every 48 hours and done scans but the blood test shows my hormones multiplying by 60% which isn't good or bad, and on the scan they Can se a sack but couldnt see a baby, the nurse was very nice and helpful and explain that maybe is because I'm too early on the pregnancy but that according to my last period I should be 6 weeks.

The sharp pain persist, the back and waist pain is horrendous that I can't sleep and I'm starting to feel dizzy. I feel pregnant lol

I asked the midwife: so, am I pregnant? and she said probably! lol

I've been advice to sit at home, don't go to work (just in case) and wait for my next scan in 10 days.

Is just horrible not to know, you cannot get exited or plan ahead!

Thank you for your responses
