lower abdominal pressure

Hi everyone,

I woke up last night with horrible lower abdominal pressure that lasted for about 5 minutes (though it seemed like forever) and then went a I'm 5 1/2 weeks pregnantway. I couldn't go back to sleep for fear that I would start bleeding.

Wannabeone,
Try not to worry about the Fifth's Disease. I am a nurse and I hear so many stories of other nurses who have been exposed to TB, radiation, chicken pox, etc... before they knew they were pregnant and all had healthy pregnancies. The chance of your exposure is very rare; there is nothing ...

Welcome to the group Nimble! What a blessing you have after 2 IVF attempts!

Rikirees, I can't believe you have four beanies! I can't believe your odds that ALL 3 took and then that 1 split into 2. Truly a blessing!

Thanks everyone for your answers and support. I feel better after reading all your replies (& getting out of the house). I'm a neurotic person at baseline, so now I feel like all my neuroses are heightened!

I'll keep everyone updated as my first ultrasound is tomorrow!
Praying for a healthy beanie!

no pregnancy symptoms

Hi all,

I am starting to freak out b/c I have absolutely no pregnancy symptoms, except for blue lines on my breasts. In fact, I feel great. My symptoms have been gone for almost one week now (I was bloated, nauseous, and always hungry- don't know if those were related to progesterone injections or ...

Hi everyone,

Just wondering if it's normal NOT to feel pregnant; I know everyone is different and it's still really early (a lot of people at this stage wouldn't even know they were pregnant yet). Last week I had one or two days of nausea, and some wierd cravings. Now I feel fine- except for lots ...

Hi all,

Well now that the first hurdle (getting pregnant) is finally over, I am now pertrified of suffering a miscarriage. It's to the point that I can't think of anything else. Anyone else with this? Am I just going crazy? Any advice to help calm my nerves and fears?

Hi rdoc,

I didn't really have any symptoms- the ones I had I think are more progesterone-related (feeling like an unending case of PMS and very bloated- some days worse than others). I was trying to analyze every twinge, but "Ghost" would always say it was more progesterone related. So ...

I put my patches on my lower abdomen- one right next to the other and I alternate between left side and right side every other day.

Hope this helps!

I am so happy to say that I am officially pregnant!!! My beta hcg isn't until 5/25, but I caved in and drew one at work (I'm a nurse) and it came back at 138!!!! I guess those HPTs were accurate. I'm just wondering what my numbers will be by Friday. I have a feeling I'm carrying twins!

Hope ...
