Anyone having any mild cramps?
I'm having some mild period like cramps. Nothing major. Theres no bleeding/spotting. I was just wandering if anyone else is experiencing this.
Hi there Everyone! My name is Maggie and I am around 6 weeks pregnant right now with my 2nd child. I have a 16 month old son, named Zach. We just found out we are pregnant after a miscarriage in June of this year. very sad, but we are thrilled we are pregnant again.
I went into the Dr for my quick blood test visit so they can monitor levels since I had a recent miscarraige. They did my 1st HCG and progesterone which was 114 HCG and 26 Progesterone. A few days later, my 2nd results showed 419 HCG and my progest. dropped down to 10.6
They started me on the progesterone cream insert twice the 1st day and then once everyday. Tomorrow I go for another blood test to see if the levels continue to go up. I am worried out of my brain!!
Has anyone else expierenced anything like this?? I have been having cramping, but nothing severe or anything. But, I can definately tell its there. I am not really hungry, I have only had 2 boughts of morning illness, but no throwing up, boobs feel normal. I just dont have a lot of signs of pregnancy.... It looks like the baby is growing from the HCG levels growing, and the progesterone cream seems to have kept the little one in there and safe if my body wasnt producing enough. I go tomorrow for more blood tests, and I was going to ask for an U/S to see if there is anything there. I dont think constant light cramping is normal, is it?? Any thoughts, help or anything would be great!! My due date is July 17th
Thanks,
Maggie

Did she have "periods" all the way through pregnancy? I have read that that happens to people - and here I thought we got a break from that for 9 months! I hope my little bean is OK, thanks for giving me some hope. :-)
There's hope. My friend thought she got her period when she was actually pregnant. She said her period wasn't normal though. She's now 9 months pregnant.
I do the same thing to! I get myself all worked up and nervous that any minute I'm going to have another M/C. I start thinking the worst too I find myself running to the bathroom too.
Thank you, Jen. I'll definitely post on Monday one way or the other - hopefully it won't have to be my last post in "July09 babies", but we'll see.
I hope everything is okay angela. Please let us know what they say on Monday. I don't go to the Dr until 12/2, I miscarried back in April, so i know if that was happening i'd be very scared. My prayers are with you.
FYI - Graphic *bloody* details in this post!
Well, I found out I am pregnant this past Saturday, and since them have had the mild "period cramps". However, today, there was blood when I wiped this morning at about 6:00AM and throughout the morning I spotted. Then, I called the doctor and they had me come right in. I got there at about 12:15 and when I peed there, there was a lot of blood in the toilet, too. She said my cervix is closed and there is blood in my "vault", whatever that means. So, she said I'd bleed throughout the weekend. It's very much like period blood. They took blood from my arm - why there when I had plenty coming out from the other place, I'm not sure - haha - and said to come back Monday morning to take more blood. Then they are going to compare the samples and let me know. I have my regularly scheduled appointment Monday afternoon so that is when I will find out if it is a viable pregnancy. The cramping hasn't gotten worse with the blood, but I am not counting on this pregnancy being a successful one. This is my first pregnancy, so who knows, maybe I am one of the 25-50% of women who bleed when pregnant and everything will be fine. I don't know. But, I am pretty bummed.

I have been having period like cramps for the past few days but today it has been the worst! I have felt like this almost all day and sorry if TMI but today i have had a lot of CM. I have been telling my fiance...I feel like I'm going to start my period...and he says, well your not so you can just get that out of your head, lol. And everytime I feel the CM i get all paraniod and rush to the restroom thinking, please be clear, please be clear. Its SO sad. LOL
Anya I don't sleep well I don't know if that is when the baby is growing or what but wow I'm really uncomfortable.....
Omg If I could rip my b's off I would be a happy woman. I can't even wear a bra!
I am not nausious really at all. I mean in the mornings a little, but nothing major. My bbs are sore though. I sleep very well at night, normally falling asleep around 8 and not waking up until the next morning.
In SC, there are free pregnancy test/ultra sound clinics. So I am going there on Tues to get an u/s. Hopefully everything looks okay. I'm very nervous about that.

Haha I wish I had a job where I can just sit all day. I actually work with kids at a place called My Gym and we have to do tumbling skills and balancing skills and all types of lifting the children and sometimes heavy equipment (however I did stop lifting the really heavy equipment) and I feel like I should be doing less which I can't do because I have to work and I love the kids I have in my classes!
Hi girls, I am in the same boat. Had a m/c in April and feel very uncomfortable at night especially... I get pretty weird pains there , and they are not bad at all but weird, not just regular cramps and my whole digestive system is acting up at night....like something is bothering my stomach....its just weird and it doesn't make me sleep :(
I hope everything is normal, hold on there! My next appt is not until Dec 8th!! Which is FOREVER away!!
Plus, I am not nausious today at all which is weird AND my bbs are not sore for the last few days: (

I am also having mild period like cramps, I know it is normal to have these cramps but sometimes it worries me especially when I am working because I worry I am over doing it.
No, the doctor that delivered my son no longer practices. and the Doctor that I went to when I had the m/c I wouldn't go back to him. So I had to find someone new.
I know what you mean, the cramps make me so nervous! If i could just take my boobs off also i would. they are so sore

Me too. I'm still a nervous wreck. It stinks really. I wish I didn't have any cramps ever and just a happy peaceful little pg. I hope you feel better soon. Wow that is crazy my dr couldn't get me in quick enough. I have my u/s on 11/26. Did your dr deliver your other baby? or babies?
My Doctors didn't have an opening until 12/2. Which is forever away, well it feels that way. It's not constant pain, it comes and goes. I figured it was just stretching, but I get so scared since I had a m/c in April
Yes. I had them so bad last fri I called the dr on call. No bleeding though. I'm so uncomfortable at night I can feel everything stretching at night. Yikes. I get so nervous that I'm going to have anoher m/c. My dr told me to take tylenol if it gets bad but I don't. I have a u/s on the 26th. He thinks it may in fact be scar tissue that is causing so much pain. I don't. I think that I'm prolly further along and I'm infamous for having big babies. I hope you feel better!!!
