Early pregnancy aches

Hiya, I am pregnant with my 2nd child. I am roughly about 5 weeks along, even though this is my 2nd pregnancy i still wonder what every ache or pain is as i seem to forget what it was like, as like every expecting mum i am worried about anything going wrong. Im not in 'pain' but i do have dull aches that all seems to be one sided someone told me this could be due to the fact that it may be the side the embro is lay in the uterus...has any1 experienced this or could give me information on weather or not its normal? thanks

As long as it is just a mild ache and not excruciating pain you should be fine!  My right ovary aches and often gets worse when I have to potty, so I asked my Dr. and he said that it is most likely the functional cysts that form on the ovaries after ovulation.  These cysts are what is responsible for making the progesterone.  Once the plecenta is formed, that will take over making the progesterone and the cysts will usually disappear.  I had my 1st u/s on Wednesday and sure enough, the baby was in the right spot and the pain was from my cysts!!  If it gets bad, you may want to talk to your Dr. about it just to rule out an ectopic pregnancy.  Good luck to you!!
