So I found out I was pregnant when I took a home pregnancy test on the 31st of August, ironically to reassure myself that I wasn't pregnant so I could move on to figuring out what was REALLY wrong with me. My boobs were killing me - I could hardly wear a bra, but couldn't bear to not wear one, that's how bad it was. Every time something brushed against my nipples I had to fight back the urge to cry out. Especially since I have decent sized boobs so they get in the way of lots of things xd
I was also feeling nauseous in the mornings, and heartburn throughout the day. I've had heartburn before, and it was accompanied by nausea in the morning, so I didn't think too much of it. But I was also late on my period by about 3-5 days, so I took the test to get myself to stop worrying. Ha! It was definitely positive.
Went to the health department half an hour later, drank 2 bottles of water so I could pee again, and it was still positive, but faint. Got the ball rolling for WIC, and got my first dr.s appointment on Sept. 16th.
That same day, I started cramping. I thought, maybe this was all for nothing, maybe I tested too early and now I'm having a miscarriage. But after looking up a bunch of information, and speaking to a nurse, I learned it was normal, but I needed to push fluids and try not to strain during BM (sorry for the tmi).
So I've been drinking a ton of water. I haven't been forcing it either, my body wants water. I've stopped eating all junk foods and started eating fruits and healthier stuff.
But I'm scared. Scared that this pregnancy is going to end in a miscarriage. Scared enough that it wakes me up at night. I haven't had this pregnancy confirmed by blood test yet, either. I guess they'll do that when I go to the doctor on the 16th, but I'll be 7 weeks along by then. And the wait is killing me. I have so many questions.
Also, my boobs aren't as sore as they were just 6 days ago. And I'm still cramping. No bleeding though. But last night I woke up with this horrible crampy feeling in my stomach, way worse than the ones before. I ran to the bathroom expecting there to be blood, expecting that I was miscarrying, but thankfully, no blood. But I'm still having crampy feelings. Though now I'm wondering if maybe some of them aren't just gas in my lower intestine. I guess time will tell.
I just have this awful feeling my pregnancy is ending. Or maybe it was a dream in the first place. I want to go buy another pregnancy test, just to make sure. I know it's silly, but I've also gotten superstitious about the whole thing. I'm afraid if I start telling lots people, then I'm going to miscarry, and lose this baby.
Sigh. When I'm not worrying about miscarrying, my boyfriend and I are very excited. He's 21, and I'm 22, we've been together for almost 6 years. I want kids, so does he, but we haven't been trying to conceive. It just happened.
Sorry about the long post... I needed to vent I guess. I'm just so worried... I think I'm going to go spend the money on a pregnancy test after work tonight. Just so I can have peace of mind and maybe sleep tonight.

The cramping usually is normal but if its that serious I would talk to your doctor and try to come in a bit earlier because it could be ectopic which means its in the tube and by 7-8 weeks could bust the tube.
Or its normal because before I found out I was pregnant for sure at 27 weeks I had serious cramping for a month It was insane I thought I was gonna have the worse period in history but drinking water and eatting alot of fruit helped ease it up a bit.
Just relax and dont worry to much being pregnant comes with alot of weird things just make sure you know whats normal for you and whats not and bring it up to the doctor!

There's no sharp pains though... and the cramping has gone mostly away by now smile
It's just the morning sickness that's getting to me now sad

I was sixteen when I got pregnant. I thought I had a miscarriage to until I talked to my doctor. So my advice is go to an OB - GYN or a regular doctor. (If your wondering how old I am1 cool

I had a miscarriage at ten weeks without any cramping, my only clue was light bleeding and lack of symptoms. It wasn't until a few weeks later that I actually started cramping and passed what was left of the baby. If you aren't bleeding and have morning sickness then I wouldn't worry too much. My husband and I are trying again and I already feel anxious about will I miscarry.
