My first pregnancy and worried?

Question

Hi everyone, this is my first pregnancy and conceived on my first cycle of clomid. Im only 5-6 weeks and i've had lots of mild pains and have been spotting, (fresh blood and brown old blood) Ive had ultra sound and everything looked normal (only yolk sac visable) and my bood test show my hcg levels have doubled which is good, but i've still got pains and spotting should i still be worried or am i being silly, Thank you for your help

Answer 1

If your doc is not worried, you shouldn't be. If you had a ultrasound and everything looked fine, you are probably okay. A lot of people I knew had spotting and did not miscarry. As long as your HCG levels are rising...you should be okay. The pain suprised me too because no one talks about it (probably because by the time you give birth, that pain seems minor). It is your ligaments and uterus expanding that is causing the pain. Sometimes it feels like cramping, other times like a pulled muscle. As long as it is not a stabbing pain or something you can't handle, don't fret. Though, if you start bleeding excessively do call the doc. You just have to know when to worry and when not to. Believe me, coming off my first trimester, I think I worried the doctor to death...and myself for that matter.

Answer 2

You are not being silly...you are doing what thousands of other worried mum to be's do when they bleed...worrying, which is entirely reasonable under the circumstances! I had a light bleed (wore a panty liner for 3-4 days) my blood was also pink with some brown too. I had cramps in my pregnancy (which is my third) right up until I was 8-9 weeks. I have no idea what it was as I didnt get any of these things with my previous pregnancies. If they are happy that they can see the sac and you dont loose too much blood Im sure all is well. Goodluck with the pregnancy x

No you're not being silly a lot of people can experience pain and cramping in the first few weeks of their first pregnancy. Its not necessarily serious and often just down to your muscles having to do something they have never had to do. Remember they all have to relax and soften to allow for your uterus to expand. Spotting is not unusual either. I had spotting with both my girls but not in my last pregnancy and can be caused by several things in my case it was my cervix softening. If your HCG levels are going in the right direction that's all that matters right now. Ask to speak to your midwife or for a referral to an early pregnancy unit if your local maternity unit has one. Good luck x

Is the pointy discomfort which you're feeling alongside one or the two facets of your decrease abdomen? Does it experience like a pulling in case you have been to go? Does it tend to wreck once you upward thrust up from a sitting place? it fairly is in all hazard basically around ligament discomfort, which a great sort of persons have at this factor in being pregnant. There are ligaments holding your uterus in place and while the uterus grows and stretches upward, it pulls on those ligaments. i'm getting it each and all the time. It sounds like a tugging on my decrease abdomen on one side or the different. now and back it fairly is the two facets on the comparable time. now and back i think it after walking plenty or when I upward thrust up from a sitting place. If this sounds like what you have, there is not any reason to problem. talk on your well being practitioner related to the discomfort the following day. in case you're no longer bleeding or cramping, infant is exceedingly much actual fantastic. :) desire this eases your thoughts till you spot the record the following day!

Your doctor's seen a lot more of these than you have. If he's not worried, don't worry. But do tell him if things change! Even a change for the better can be a problem.

CALL YOUR DOCTOR. Pregnancy is one of the more important and more serious things you will ever go through in your life. You need to have a good relationship with him or her.
