Sore Breast and cramps

[KristenB923]

Hi all!  I am 6 weeks pregnant and have a few questions.  Is it normal to have sore breasts only in the morning?  When I wake up they hurt so bad, its like I have to wait at least an hour to shower so the pain subsides.  They still hurt all through the day, but the servere pain is in the morning.

Also, I have periodotic cramps throughout the day, nothing serious, mainly feels like period cramps.  I have had these cramps for about a week, the doctor told me I was fine, but I am nervous since my last pregnancy turned into a miscarriage.

Any help?!

i had the same symptoms when i suspected i was pregnant. i was about 6 weeks when i found out and i had tested because i was feeling horrible cramps and breast tenderness (along with the missing period). just sounds to me like your body is telling you that you are for sure pregnant. if you had a miscarriage before, it'd be a good idea to have your doctor look into it sooner rather than later, but don't stress because that puts the baby under stress which could cause a miscarriage so early. just relax and call your doctor, but i'm telling you, i had the same symptoms and now i have a 6 week old son, it's possible it's just your body's way of telling you you're pregnant. good luck!

Do you think that I should call the doctor and ask for that medication?  I am afaid that I will have another miscariage, and personally I don't think i can handle that again.

I am so sorry to hear about what happened with you as well.

I had same experience last January..I did'nt know i was pregnant that time because my LMP was Dec. 17,2007.so i tot i nearly had my menstruation that time..but when i tested my urine it was positive..but the cramping was so severe..so my doctor gave me duvadilan because i had my previous miscarriage..and it was 6weeks.she told me that on my next visit i'm going to have an ultrasound to hear the baby's heartbeat..but unfortunately, the second visit,there wasn't any heartbeat being heard on the doppler,so my ob told me to have transvaginal utrasound,and the fetus was formed but no movement and heartbeat..but i had no bleeding,so i was confined to undergo D and C..

Pregnancy symptoms will fluctuate throughout the day and your pregnancy - this definitely applies to breast tenderness.

Cramping during the early stages of pregnancy is a common pregnancy symptom and can be caused by a number of things including the stretching of ligaments.  If the cramps become severe or are accompanied by bleeding, then that would be cause for concern.  Also, make sure you are hydrated as that can sometimes cause/worsen cramps.
