Im worried about my Pregnancy at 5 weeks.?

Question

Hi. i am 5 weeks pregnant last week i had bad stomach pain like servere period pains, i just thought this was normal. Now today i felt really light headed and quite shakey, this was making me feel sick in stages, but just before all this i had just eaten. I reserched my symptoms and i am worried about ectopic pregenancy, or am i being paronoid? Please tell me if these systoms are normal? Thanks

Answer 1

It's best to go to the doctor if you're feeling very ill. Nausea is common, but the shakes are not so quite common. I would say call your doctor to reassure you that everything is fine.

Answer 2

well, I had those menstraul like cramps up until 15 weeks! I would run to the bathroom ... so afraid I was getting my period. I told the doctor about it .. he said it's completely normal. He said there is a lot of stretching going on .. uterus expanding, etc. He said .. those pains are normal and there's a lot more to come! :)

the light headedness is normal too! that's from all the hormones in your body .. you're body is going through a lot right now .. you're making a baby :)

all those symptoms are normal ... don't stress! ectopic pregnancy is VERY rare .. and all those symptoms you have are the same symptoms as me and everyone else are having with our pregnancies.

I'm 22 weeks pregnant with a very healthy baby boy!

good luck! God bless!

It's probably not an ectopic. I had one last year and I had no sickness, no evidence that I was even pregnant. I had just been spotting on and off for a few weeks. I felt a dull ache on one side that felt like I was ovulating, only it didn't go away.

Just because you are having pain does not indicate an ectopic. Chances are, everything is fine and you are just experiencing blood sugar changes as your body adjusts to being pregnant as well as your uterus expanding. Hang in there and if your symptoms worsen or you start spotting/bleeding, see your doctor.

All throughout your pregnancy you are going to be worried about stuff. This is what your OB-GYN is there for. Call him/her and share these symptoms. Beware of others that tell you their similar stories of symptoms and if they think this could be something that would make you concerned about the pregancy. Every woman is different with their pregnancies and every pregnancy is different. Mine certainly were NOT similar in any way. Only a doctor can tell you about what you should and should not be concerned with regarding symptoms like this and TRUST me, they're used to multiple questions from worried pregnancy women. Calling your doctor now is really the best thing to do and ultimately if there is something wrong, then you are protecting your own health as well as your baby's.

Answer 5

luckily, ectopic pregnancies can be detected very early on. if this is a concern, i suggest you call your OB and make an appointment. ectopic pregnancies are very serious and can even be fatal to the mother. treatment may include removing part of your tube, but not to worry, you can conceive again.

OR this very well could be horrendous morning sickness. something that should also be addressed with your doctor. they will help you get the nutrients you need if you cant seem to keep any food down.

best of luck to you and your child.

Exactly the same thing happened to me,at exactly the same stage of pregnancy .I actually started to have light spotting as well,it was actually my fourth baby all my other pregnancies were fine.I went straight to my doctor who sent me for an early scan.I continued spotting and getting stomach pains all the way through until i had a beautiful baby girl.My advice is go and see your GP asap,find out what is going because worrying won't be making you feel any better,good luck.

Answer 7

Hey there, sister. I am also in my 5th week of pregnancy, my first baby. It is so scary, I know. I am constantly terrified something will go wrong. Just wanted to let you know I've been having VERY similar symptoms. I doubt that both of us would have something bad happening. If you are worried, then I think you should go to your doctor to make sure everything's okay, but I just wanted to let you know your symptoms are probably normal. Take care and good luck!

Answer 8

It sounds like morning sickness to me, but I didn't have any sickness at all with my pregnancy. My best advice is to give your clinic a call. Sometimes even the receptionist there can assure you that you're fine, and it will make you feel much better. If you are very worried, you should get to the doctor and talk with him. Good luck!

Answer 9

completely generic! Mine replaced into an identical way and now I even have an outstanding 6 month previous! they don't even examine for a heartbeat at 5 weeks, they in many situations wait until 7-10 weeks. they did not examine for a heartbeat until i replaced into 10 weeks pregnant. i'm specific each and every thing is purely advantageous.

Answer 10

Ectopic pregnancy is painful, in the lower abdomen but does not feel like cramps. However, your pain is not normal, go to a gyn and get a sonography.

Answer 11

I would see your doctor with these symptoms. It could be your blood pressure is high. However, if you think it is an ectopic pregnancy, this is quite dangerous and you need to see a doctor as soon as possible.
