I had to leave work today because I was hurting sooo bad...Legs throbbing and cramping...No bleeding...I am just sooo worried! I mean I understand cramping is normal...But uhhhh...I just want to take my uterus out!! I called the doc and he said to just go home a lay down...Okay....What I am like 4 1/2 weeks...And he is already making me lay down! Like that is going to help...I couldnt even sleep last night because I was hurting sooo bad! Anyways..So yeah..Sitting at home about to lay down and I feel like I am dying! Sorry...Just needed to let my feelings out! Could you possibly know how I feel? I mean I am a teacher and I thougth it was because I am standing alot...But even when I sit I am in constant pain! It is worse then af cramps! Will it ever go away..And if you were me what would you do? So stressed!
Thanks ladies

Laura,

i don't think that's normal at all! I would insist on being seen and checked (perhaps an ultrasound?). Do you have a history of miscarriage and/or endometriosis or cysts/polyps anything????

If your doctor won't see you and it's that severe (assuming you have a fairly normal to high threshold for pain), i'd go to the er.

Please keep us posted and good luck to you and your little bean!

Hi laura,

i am nearly 7 weeks pregnant and I am suffering from cramps too. It seems to me that standing may be part of the cramping pains because sometimes when I sit, the pain may go away. Sometimes when I sit down, the pain can still be there. I am no expert in pregnancy as this is my first, I am a little worried about if this is normal or not. I also suffer from backaches too!

I hope that everything is well and try to put your feet up more.

Take care!
