Whatever you do don't stress!
Stress can only lead to negative thoughts. Unless you are bleeding or cramping wait until your next Dr. appt. You will get to hear the babies heart beat again. It will reasure you.
Hi all, I still don't feel much. Weird thing is after dinner when I'm full, I feel the lower abdominal bloated or tight. That's all. I really don't know weather I should see the GP again sooner. I think maybe just wait one more week.
if you're happy to wait the week than do that - remember that your body is going through so many changes and it can be completely normal to not 'feel' pregnant for a few days or even longer. your body adjusts differently to each pregnancy.
if you're going to wait until your next appointment try to relax. if you start to get stressed it might help to talk to a friend or write down how you're feeling - it sometimes helps to 'get it out' so you can calm yourself. and if you really start to feel that there's something wrong - do make an appointment at the doc.
If it makes you feel better, it is a great sign you feel bloated. That is definitely a sign of being pregnant. lol I am as bloated as a whale right now!
With my son's pregnancy my BB's started to feel completely normal again at about the same stage you are at now. They never really got sore again. I never got what I would call MS during the pregnancy - yet I was still pregnant. I remember feeling really worried - I'd already had 3 losses at the 5 week mark & just thought "here I go again" but it was not the case. I seriously felt very "normal" throughout much of the pregnancy.
I wouldn't worry about seeing a doctor unless you get spotting. That was always the first sign for me that a loss was imminent, but even then I had two lots of that with the last pregnancy & it meant absolutely nothing.
I also think bloating is a good sign, man I remember that feeling! My 'symptoms' also would come and go during my first trimester, sick one day, fine the next.
As the other girls have said, only worry if you have cramping PLUS bleeding. It's very normal to have bad cramps at this stage as your body prepares to carry the growing bub.
When I was pregnant with my first, I felt really sick more or less as soon as I find out. I had a threatened miscarriage and was actually told I'd miscarried, and the symptoms went away. Turns out I was still pregnant and the symptoms returned a week after I found out. I think the first time I didn't actually have symptoms, I was just sick with a flu lol.
