I had really bad crampy period pains for about the first 8 weeks at least. DD2 is here to tell the tale!

Hugs to you and I hope you get your blood results nice and quick.]]> Tue, 29 Nov 2011 16:22:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412238&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412238 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412214&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412214 Author: Cinderella

I started cramping at 4 weeks and it didn't settle till about 10 weeks. It can get worse with each pregnancy from what I understand. I am now at 28 weeks and it has recently started again. If it is a crampy period type pain I wouldn't worry too much as it is actually quite normal.]]> Tue, 29 Nov 2011 15:01:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412214&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412214 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412185&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412185 Author: ScaredyKat

Thanks you guys :-) I have had my bloods done today so will see what they bring back. Have booked in for a scan at 8 weeks which is still 3 weeks away - torture!]]> Tue, 29 Nov 2011 14:05:23 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412185&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412185 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412096&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412096 Author: MamaT

Definitely ring your MW, she will be able to ease your mind, or send you for a scan and/or bloods.
I have had really bad stomach cramps this time around every 3-4weeks for a few days, a whole lot worse than period pains, but my MW thinks it is probably like a pseudo-period, due to the timing and the regularity of it.

It is scary, I can absolutely sympathise. I think you should discuss this all with your husband, you don't want to have to be suffering in silence with both the pain and the stress.
Good luck ]]> Tue, 29 Nov 2011 12:12:13 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412096&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412096 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412070&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412070 Author: Ducky101

Hi Scardy Cat. i agree, You should really get a scan to make sure everything is going ok. If its really bad pain then it could be an ectopic pregnancy. So go see your GP.

Im sure everyting is ok though! GL and let us know what happens! ]]> Tue, 29 Nov 2011 10:50:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412070&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412070 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412069&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412069 Author: ginger

No blood is a good sign, and even with blood it's not necessarily the end (I used to bleed a bit with my first). Hormones and your uterus starting to stretch can do it - I had terrible cramps with both of mine, like a period and early labour. Take it quietly and remember that a scan may put your mind at ease, but at that stage quite often there's nothing to see yet so it could make your stress worse and that's bad for baby all by itself. All the best!]]> Tue, 29 Nov 2011 10:50:01 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412069&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412069 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1412058&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1412058 Author: Jaune

It's also quite normal to have some pains in your stomach as the uterus stretches and changes to accommodate the baby. Try not to worry too much but definitely contact your MW or GP and arrange a scan to put your mind at rest.

I had about 4 scans in the first 12weeks of my pregnancy. Each time because of either bleeding or cramping and bleeding.
I'd say no blood is a really good sign but get a scan...it's so much better knowing than sitting and stressing.

Oh hun, I'd definitely talk to your midwife, or if you haven't organised one yet, your GP.

Best of luck xx]]> Tue, 29 Nov 2011 08:51:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1411998&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1411998 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1411993&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1411993 Author: MrsEmma

ScaredyKat big hugs

As nannikin said, no blood is a good sign and getting in touch with your MW or GP to get an early scan might be a really good idea to put your mind at ease.

from what i've heard, no blood is a very good sign! so much to worry over in early pregnancy though huh... i would get in touch with your MW and ask her opinion, if you are getting really stressed about it she may be able to send you for an early scan?

I am 5 weeks along with my second, and last night woke up with pain in my stomach, couldn't sleep it was that annoying. No blood or anything yet, but am petrified there is a miscarriage happening but I won't end up finding out till the scan or something. I haven't even told my hubby yet and now I'm not sure how to. Umm so I am pregnant but I think I have or am losing it? ]]> Tue, 29 Nov 2011 06:41:10 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41081&PID=1411950&title=so-scared-i-am-having-a-miscarriage#1411950
