Worry

[Angela36]

Feeling anxious yet again today. Yesterday I took stomach pains which were like bloated cramps. I had them most of day. Took paracetamol and lay on couch with water bottle. No pain today , no tiredness ,and no sore boobs, jus sore back and up 5 times during nite for pee. Not peein as much during day now. I'm on antibios for urine infection. I'm not bleeding which is good news. Am I worrying for nothing. Can't wait to get my scan so I know all is ok. I'm only 6weeks pregnant. Any answers will b appreciated. Thank

No bleeding s a great sign. Make sure u drink 2 litres of water a day. In this pregnancy I was so bloated till week ten and got cramps on and off, I'm now 20 weeks

In respect of your symptoms mine come and go everyday for me is different, my sore boobs got better around ten weeks and are not really that bad anymore thank god.

I bought. Fetal doppler to help reassure myself, don't get one till u are twelve weeks as baby is so small to hear, but now at 20 weeks its easy to find and hear beating and swooshing about.

Good luck x

Thank u for replying. Suppose we don't stop worrying. What is a fetal doppler and were can I buy 1. Thanx . Take care

U can buy them off the internet but DO NOT ever use them for reassurance. They are a small hand held device that is designed so that u can listen to the heartbeat. If ever any of you have worries about the babies movements u must contact ur local maternity dept. The midwives check in a particular area for the heartbeat and the maternal heart beat can be mistaken for the fetal heart rate.

Good luck with your can I hope everythin goes well x
