Very Nervous

Going by my LMP (which will be 2 or 3 days off), I'll be 5 weeks tomorrow. I got my first positive on Sunday. That day, my nipples were really sensitive & I had lots of cramping. Over the past 6 days, while my nipples have still been a bit sensitive, it has definately not been as intense as it was on Sunday. I still have some random cramping, but again, not as intense. So basically, all I feel now is exhausted, slightly sensitive nipples & really bloated.

Is this bad? I keep thinking I should feel worse now if everything were okay with this pregnancy. I am absolutely terrified of miscarriage (probably beyond all rational thinking). With my first pregnancy, I didn't find out I was pregnant until 4weeks 6days (same as I am today), and I remember feeling much crampier & a bit more sore just a few days after finding out last time. Is this normal or shoould I be panicking now? I'm going to the doctor on Tuesday to be confirmed (as if the 6 very positive HPTs aren't enough!), but my first appointment isn't going to be for a couple of weeks I believe. I'm so nervous. I can't wait for the first trimester to end.

Wait to see what happens later in the day. Usually in the morning my boobs are not sore, but by night time they are hurting again.

Re: Very Nervous

I'm 7 weeks now.... and am not experiencing too much boob pain or cramping for the last several days. Even my food aversions (which started only last week) are a bit more manageable... My main symptom now is fatigue.

I even had a bit of red spotting 3 weeks ago. I'm getting too tired to worry anymore I have a sono on monday, so we really hope I see a heartbeat!

the first trimester is so stressful.... I'm learning to not over analyze my symptoms....

Re: Very Nervous

I would try not to analyze toooo much. This is my first pregnancy - in the beginning i was crampy and my boobs were sore - but it varied depending on the day. I remember going to the doctor for one of my earliest checkups and I mentioned that I was feeling "less" pregnant.... less crampy, etc...... they did bloodwork - a couple of times - everythign always came back fine. Hopefully this will be the case for you, too. I know it is hard, but try not to worry too much.
