should i see a dr. soon?

i just found out i was pregnant 3 days ago, and i dont have health insurance. Im waiting for my medical to kick in so i can see a dr. but that wont be til nxt week. I've been having minor pain on my left side and im not sure about the condition of the baby and im just a little worried. i'v talk to my bf about it and he agrees that i should see a dr or go to the er since i dnt have health insurance. Should i go or should i wait til my insurance kicks in?. im 4 weeks but that's only coming from the clinic i went to when i was getting a pregnancy test done.

For a few weeks you will have a dull 'period pain' type feeling also, like your period is about to start, but that's normal, as long as no bleeding is happening, I am from the UK and can't help with the insurance stuff, but the clinic where you went too to have your pregnancy confirmed, I assume is free or you would've been charged for the test? Try there first, but good luck. :)

You should check If that same clinic will see u for free, if not usually they should be able to see u and once your medical does kick in the insurance will reimburse your bills.

But yes my first trimester I had frequent cramping and sharp pains which is normal since your uterus is expanding

Minor pains r normal as ur body is changing, if ur really scared or concerned go to the ER, if u can wait until next week, as long as u ain't bleeding I think ur fine
