Have any of you girls who are/were pregnant experience really bad soreness in your stomach? For the past two days now my stomach(abs and ribs) have been extremely sore...It feels like I did too many sit ups..I'm still waiting on that blood test and i'm getting really scared as each day passes...I've been nauseated every day, fatigued/dizzy, i'm now having cramping this morning(last night me and tom did stuff, but why would I cramp?) and ive never had that before....I'm freaking out again and don't know what to think..Help!

Where are you cramping at? Bc I know when me and boyfriend would do stuff it would actually hurt me in the same place that I cramp off and on all the time on my lower right side and I have cramping in my lower left side time to time also but mainly my right and I just found out yesterday im 13 weeks so..... But I didnt think to much about it being from being preg as all my hpt 's were neg so I assumed something else was wrong but turns out it wasnt nothing else . So I dont know have u missed ur period or anything yet?

I cramped up when I was first preggers,but its just growing pains, and just like cramps u get out of the blue...The doctor said they were normal...But they could mean an ectopic pregnancy(preggers in ur fallopian tubes), but I dunno... I still get cramps occasionaly, but the girls told me it is just my uterus stretching...I was never sore tho, unless I threw up alot, which I did....Thank god that is over...Keep us updated...Jordan

Ansley, im cramping on the bottom left and right sides of my stomach, I havent missed my period, I just got it 2 weeks ago, but me and tom(the guy im seeing) have been doing things with risk of pregnancy for about 4 weeks now( no sex, long story, but theres the possiblility)....Im so confused, I dont know, I feel so incredibly sick today and I cant stop shaking, im so scared, im about to call my doctor and tell them because I need to get a blood test and dont think I can wait until monday...I took 2 hpts but they both came back negative, but my guess would be that im too early on(if I am) for my levels to be detected...I havent eaten in a week, just snacked on saltines because ive felt so sick...Ive had bad headaches every day, and I never get headaches ever...Im so scared, I dont know what to do!

Hmm yeah it would be too early to detect on the hpt .... You def. Should make and appt. And find out whats going on with you girl.... It could be anything it could be what she said with your appendex or having an etopic pregnancy u could be preggers or anything but you should go on and go to the doc. Just in case its something serious or even if your preggo. Do you cramp on and off or is ongoing? Are you wanting to be preg. Dont wait 3 months like me to get to the doc. Lol ...

The cramping is on and off...But the soreness has been ongoing for about 2 days now, dont know why though, I definitely dont want to be pregnant, i'm supposed to go to the clinic with a good friend of my moms on monday...But I dont know if I can wait that long...But, I think the only day u can go and its free is on monday...I dont know, all I know is I dont feel good at all.

Well i've been getting more and more consistant "symptoms" if you will...
They've included..Headaches(about a week now, never get headaches),fatigue I feel like I cant keep my eyes open, cramping,bloatedness, clear vaginal discharge,both an increase and decrease in appetite...Ive gone 3 whole days with eating nothing, and then I get strong cravings for a particular food, and thats it...Nausea on and off during the entire day every day to the point where I want to gag...Aches, and today I felt like I had a fever...My mom took my temp. And it was normal, but im gonna have her retake it in an hour...I thought I might have the flu, but it doesnt make sense for me to have been like this for a good week and a half now...If it was the flu I wouldnt be able to get out of bed...Im due for my period around december 30th-january 1st....So maybe something will show with that...I made the appt to get the blood test done at 4pm on monday....Oh and another thing I thought was kinda weird is for the past couple days my stomach's been gurgling, I dont know what its from...Its not hunger pains and its not gas, it sounds like liquid squishing around in there, dont know if this makes a difference....Any input from anybody?
