My body is crazy

When I had my son in 2003 I had a c-section. My pregnancy was great, I had energy and very outgoing. Now, I am pregnant. The doctors cannot make up their mind, if I am 5 weeks, 6 weeks, or 7 weeks pregnant. My last period was on March 5, 30 cycle. I had an ultrasound during the weekend when I went to the ER, and have one schedule for this Wednesday. They saw the gestional sac (not sure if I spell it right), but no baby. Because of that, they said I early around 5 weeks. 5 or 7 weeks, I should not be having cramps like this. I am tired all the time, feel hungry but trying not to eat because my first pregnancy I gained more than 50 pound. All I know when I was 6 week pregnant with my first child, they saw a baby also, not just the sac. The cramps has got better but still there. I am guessing I'm due 12/13/09. What's going on with me? the only thing I could think about is that because of the c-section now, I am going to have pain with all future pregnancies.

today I had my 3rd u/s and they saw the little one with a heartbeat; I was over joy. I feel the same, I could actually relax now and enjoy the pregnancy. They said I am 6 weeks and 3 days but, most website said I am 7 weeks. I don't care I am just happy. Due date is 12/20/09 and I will continue posting.

hi sweety
i dont think you should worry to much.
if they can only see a sac and no baby yet it might be too early.
that's what happen to me.
they could only seee a gestational sac but no baby, nothing.
it was frustating and i wanted to know if everything was alright with me and the foetus as i had 2mc before.
i went back for a scan yesterday at 7w4d and i could see  baby and hear the heartbeat !
i just think it was too early in your pregnacy to see anything.
try to use diffferent due date calculator on various website, you'll end up with different date like i did. so somethimes it's not easy to know the exact gestational age of the baby. i think you just need to be patient, and don't stress yourself.
about the cramps they are absolutly normal as long as you don't have any spotting or bleeeding this early in your pregnancy.
everything gonna be fine.
it's just the baby making space for himself.
remember that all pregnancy are different.
just enjoy this one and don't worry.
just wait a couple of weeks and book a scan.
in a more relax environment, i;m sure you'll hear your bay hbt really soon.
take care
peace
