please tell me this isn't so.....

Ok..so last night, when I went to bed, I was having this slow dull ache in my back...I woke up this morning and had this pain in my lower left abdomen...(kinda where my c-section scars ends, if that helps)..it scared me...so I went and ran a bath, thinking the heat might ease it up...it did help, the pain isn't as bad as it was before...but it's still achey....I'm hoping and praying this is just gas or something....I am not bleeding and I am 5 weeks 1 day....I am so scared that is a etopic pregnancy...I'm sooo scared.....What do you all think?!?!

wow!!! i'm soo glad i'm not alone!!! It just scared the bejees outta me..lol and your so right about the mind playing tricks...were you ttc? I guess when you "want" it soo bad, every little pain or ache can send you into a panic...

I called my doctor, and she said she doesn't think it is etopic...she said if it was then I wouldn't be able to breathe cause the pain would be so bad...she said it "might" be my uterus swelling and pushing against my scar...OR it could be what BeautifulMistake2010 said also..little peanut burrowing in deeper...so I think we are okay! I hope..Just if you start getting really serious pains, then do to the ER!! lol

Add me as a friend if you would like :)

Thank you!! You made me feel 1,000,000 time better hehe :)

I am having basically your EXACT symptoms and just posted a little over an hour ago about it! I thought I was having an ectopic pregnancy too. The mind I guess can play dirt tricks on us. I hope everything is ok for both our sakes!! I'm not bleeding too, but I have pelvic pain right under my c-section scar and dull ache in my back for almost a week and a half! I'm anywhere between 4-5 weeks pregnant. You're not alone and not being unreasonable (because I jumped to the exact same conclusion you did!!)

If your only 5 weeks hon then baby is still finishing the "implantation phase" of the pregnancy so the pain your having is not uncommon. If you start to bleed or your aching get's worse then I would call your Dr. It just sounds to me like your body is adjusting to the pregnancy. Is this your first baby ?
