    Why I am worrying!

    This is why I am worrying - I just read this article at Miscarriage help and advice

    And I quote: 'What are the symptoms of miscarriage?

    If you notice any unusual back pain or abdominal pain which feels similar to a menstrual cramp, this may be an indication. Other symptoms are bleeding, pink or grey coloured mucus, contractions which occur at regular intervals or any clots or unusual tissues passing from the vagina. If you are experiencing any of these, they may be warning signs you may be about to miscarry, call your doctor and rest as soon as you can to minimize the risk.'

    i guess if you experience a combination of the above symptoms or are worried a trip to the doctors might set your mind at ease. dont worry, i remember having the same worries when i was pregnant first time round. i think it natural to worry slightly but please try not to stress out. enjoy your pregnancy and what will be will be. :-)

    Aww hun, your pg, your cramps might be a bit different or unusual than normal AF cramps.
    Do you have any bleeding, or any "unusual tissues passing"?? I know that I always thought that if you are pg your CM is suppose to be minimal, but with this pg it was not. *TMI* I had a slight watery discharge, more that I would normaly have, but it was clear.

    Like the girls said, if you are still worried .. let the dr do some bt's and put your mind at ease.

    Hun, by fretting you are going to work yourself into some very tight knots. Take a deep breath and TRY and relax, ok??

    With my first pregnancy, I had nasty period pains when I was around 5 or 6 weeks pregnant. It got to the point that I was pretty sure I was going to miscarry. Everything was fine though, I didn't have any problems with my pregnancy after that. Well, except for a couple of episodes of spotting, but that was later on, and that also turned out to be fine. I know it's hard not to worry. I hope the pain goes away for you soon. Hugs.
