I've had bad cramps all day today, like crimpling painful cramps. No blood loss, or anything else. I also fainted yesterday whilst shopping and am feeling like complete poop. I dont have an appointment or scan for 15 days, and dont know what to do

Can I join in? Found out today I'm pregnant again (so 4 weeks I guess) and can't tell anyone for 8 weeks! How am I supposed to keep quiet? Would be nice to have someone to chat to... Not even seen doctor yet, suppose I'd better get that sorted...

Hope you last longer before you tell than I did. We told our families at 4 weeks, our friends at 5 weeks and then I got too excited with myself at 6 weeks and stuck it on Facebook I've waited years to make the anouncement so I couldn't wait

Congratulations to all new joiners and kitten pie - that is great news - not sure claps are appropriate but whatever :T

My scan is Weds (when I will be somewhere in 11 weeks + either 1 or 4), I have managed to put it out of mind as much as possible, but its not until 6 so I think Weds will be a looooong day. I am moving into thinking it will be ok, having convinced myself for weeks it won't be. I haven't had any "worrying" symptoms and actually was sick on Friday which was the only indication I wasn't imagining the nausea.

I am very glad to see the discussion on being relatively relaxed about the eating restrictions, I thought I was the only one. I was never more pleased when I found out that smoked salmon, stilton and medium steak were not on the banned list

Good luck to anyone else who has a scan coming up

Sorry to hear you are feeling rubbish. If you are concerned please go to the GP - how far along are you? I'm sure it can be many things but when I told the doc I felt faint she had to check for ectopic as it is a sign. Although I am sure everything is fine, don't use the excuse that you're expected to feel rubbish when pregnant. Sometimes there may be something that needs to be checked, even if it turns out to be nothing.

Moneypuddle, if you are worried speak to your midwife. cancel that, speak to your midwife anyway just to check.

It could be a lack of iron or something just as simple however you won't know unless you check.

I think I'll be waiting the full 12 weeks, this is baby number 3 within 5 years, so I think there will be some negative comments from some people about having too many children. Not sure why, OH is full time employed, I work 24 hours a week and the only benefits we get are Maternity Pay and Child Benefit. And we'll loose that next April if the plans go ahead to cut it to higher rate taxpayers.

I did a test yesterday that was positive, obviously, so being a girl I did another one this morning. And the line was much much fainter, is this a bad thing? I thought the hormone levels were supposed to get higher very quickly?

mysk_girl can just mean your pee was more diluted. i did 4 tests and 2 of them were on the same day. one was faint the other a dig was a clear positive lol.

You wld be around 5 weeks chick. You count the time from the first day of your last period. You can also google due date calculators and find one that uses conception dates as I knew when I'd conceived but I have longer than average cycles.
