    Hi,
    I'm 4 days late and have a negative test.
    I'm having stomach pain and my breasts also hurt at the nipple.
    What could that be?
    Am I pregnant?

    I'm also 4 weeks and 4 days pregnant here...
    Also having trouble with stomach cramps and diarrhea, which makes me very worried. No bleeding, but the feeling that something is constantly leaking. Any other people here have experience with this?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm 5 weeks pregnant now and feeling really nauseous in the mornings. It's tough to go to work like this, and I also have a lot of stomach cramps.
    Especially after a full day of work—I'm a cleaner, by the way.
    Is this normal?
    I do have a 4-year-old daughter already, and I didn't have any of these symptoms during that pregnancy.

    Best wishes,
    Engeltje

    Hey, I'm a bit worried, hence this post.

    I'm not overdue yet, but I did feel like I might be pregnant (weird stomach pain, tired, pimples...). So I took a pregnancy test 3 days before my period was due, and it was positive. My GP has also confirmed that I'm pregnant.

    Now I have stomach pain, like I could just get my period tomorrow... I'm really scared of a miscarriage.

    Does anyone here have experience with this?

    Greetings

    Hi there..

    According to the calculation, I should be 6 weeks pregnant.. My first period was on January 20th..
    Last week I got really bad cramps. Like I was about to get my period any moment..

    On December 21st I had a miscarriage. Also at 6 weeks...
    So now I'm quite afraid that it might go wrong again.
    I called the VAG (Vroedvrouwengroep/Midwife practice). Since they could see something at 6 weeks, I was allowed to come in for an internal ultrasound.
    What she could see wasn't much.. "You are pregnant," she said.. But definitely not 6 weeks.. Her diagnosis was either I'm not far enough along yet or it's not viable.. There was a very small dark elongated spot visible but she couldn't say anything for sure about it.
    Now I have to wait a week and then have another ultrasound..
    The fear is big...
    Is it justified????

    ????????????

    Hi everyone,

    I found out today that I'm expecting our 3rd child. I'm 5 weeks along and I'm having quite a bit of period-like pain. My bowel movements aren't really cooperating either. With my other two pregnancies, I didn't have any issues like this. I'm a bit scared. Does anyone have any tips?

    Best,

    Good morning,

    Today I'm 5 weeks and 1 day pregnant :-)!!
    My first pregnancy is very special.

    But since yesterday I've been having a dull lower abdominal ache, is this a normal symptom??

    Also feeling dizzy and lightheaded..

    Greetings L.K

    I'm 6 weeks pregnant now, and I've got some mild stomach cramps... I'm going a bit crazy because I'm so scared of a miscarriage! I'm 33 and pregnant for the first time! Hopefully everything is okay. First ultrasound on May 4th! Seems like an eternity :-(

    Hi everyone,

    I'm 5 weeks pregnant. I sometimes have really intense abdominal pain, luckily no bleeding. But it feels like menstrual cramps. It comes and goes. My back and legs also hurt a lot. This is my second pregnancy. The first one ended in a miscarriage after 2 months. I'm really scared of everything right now. I just called the gynecologist, she said it's normal but if it gets more intense you should come in. I hope it all works out and is okay.

    Best, Nadia

    Hi, I'm 6 weeks pregnant and I also get occasional stomach pain that worries me quite a bit, plus all sorts of weird things. This is my 3rd pregnancy but it's the first one with all sorts of ailments. Best, Nancy

    I had a lot of stomach cramps around 5-6 weeks and was always relieved when I went to pee that I wasn’t losing any blood. So scary! But it’s going well now, I have other complaints and if I do too much I still get a little stomach ache, but nowhere near as bad as before. I think it’s normal! For me, it helps to not wear tight clothes, that makes it worse for me!
    Good luck, it’ll definitely be okay! x

    I had stomach pain in the first few weeks too, probably my intestines were completely thrown off by the hormones. I'm now 6 weeks and it's completely gone.

  13. Cinnie Guest #53

    Hi everyone! I'm also 5 weeks pregnant and I'm experiencing these crampy-like stomach pains. I'm so worried! This is my fourth pregnancy, totally unexpected, and with the other three, I never had this kind of discomfort, so I'm not sure what to make of it. I'm really scared that something might go wrong...

  14. Pasje Guest #54

    Hey, so relatable. I'm 5 weeks pregnant today and have stomach pain every day. It's making me extremely anxious. Called the doctor yesterday, and she said to take paracetamol and rest. Pff, first ultrasound is on July 10th.

  15. Linda #55

    Try to relax! I still get it when I get too stressed or do too much. It's a kind of round ligament pain. My mom had it throughout her whole pregnancy, so I'm just preparing myself for that! For me, it helped to lie down and rest for a bit. Listen carefully to your body, so much is happening right now!

    Hi,
    I'm now in my 5th week and I've got cramps too... not really pleasant, but this has been going on all day, pffft.
    This is my 3rd pregnancy and I didn't have this with my other two...

    Hi everyone. First of all, congratulations to all of you on your pregnancies. I'm currently 5 weeks and 6 days pregnant. I'm also experiencing some dull pain, but thankfully not the kind of pain I get during my period, which is really awful. I tend to worry quite quickly and was wondering if it's possible to request an ultrasound and pay for it myself if needed. My first ultrasound is in 3 weeks, but I can't wait that long. I want to know if everything is going well. I'm just not sure if it makes much sense to have an ultrasound this early, since they probably can't hear the heartbeat yet??

    I'd love to hear your advice. I wish everyone a lovely pregnancy.

    I think it's very early, and there's a big chance they won't see much (or anything) yet.

    Hi everyone,

    According to the pregnancy test, I'd be almost 5 weeks pregnant. I'm now 3 days late and I'm usually very regular. This was supposed to be the 2nd time I'd get my period after stopping the pill. I've had some dull menstrual cramps for a few days now; I even woke up from it last night... I'm going to check and I'm really anxious about seeing blood. In the meantime, the pain has subsided a bit. I wanted to go to the doctor this week to get this checked, but now I'm reading here that it's quite normal. Is waking up in the middle of the night also normal?

    Best!

    Dear MY,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I think you're right. I just don't enjoy waiting. I'm on vacation now and can't enjoy it because I keep thinking about when the 3 weeks will be over, for my ultrasound.
