Thank you for your help

Did you have a scan to be told that? It could well be growing pains, however if they are particularly severe you should be getting a scan at EPAU or equivalent.

Hi Roxann, i was admitted to hospital when i was 5 weeks pregnant for kidney infection and had a scan and they told me i have introvert cervix. Then went back in AE again with pain but this time no infection and doctor said shes not worried about the pain. But im very worried about this pain now as its very severe and stricking. Im not back to get my scan till the 18th of May. What should I do

Are the pains still ongoing? If so I think worth getting a scan earlier. The options are 1. Checking if epau will see you directly(depends on hospital) 2. Going to your gp 3. Going back to A&e but expect a wait 4. Getting it privately if all else fails, but I think you should manage
