I would go and see a doctor for sure if you have concerns... Try not to take too much on at once iam.... Take some time to take a deep breath sweetie and one day at a time... Big hug for you and a blessing...xo

I agree with SunCloud - definitely get seen by a professional but don't worry too much. Your mom is going to find out sooner (rather than later) as your body changes - and emotional changes, too. Do you think she'd be a good support for you during your pregnancy? If not, then it's your business and yours alone. Think about what you will want/need from her if anything and maybe that will help guide you - hopefully! Big hugs for you! Take it easy and get checked out. Keep us posted please!!!

I would go see the doctor also. Trust what your body is telling you. It is never a bad thing to be cautious. Hugs that you feel better.

I would definitely get it checked out to ease my mind. I've never been pregnant but in my thinking you might be feeling something just because things are going on down there and your body might just be adjusting to it. I hope that's all anyways. Let us know.

It's gone now so I dunno if it's because of how I was sitting or gas. I'll wait a little and see how I feel. If it comes back I'll just go straight to the hospital

Iam, now you got me curious. So I looked it up and cramping can be normal during early pregnancy. it said it was like a pulling sensation on the sides and there is a name for it and also gas can cause it and some people even spot when nothing is wrong.

But if you are worried please go to the er just to calm your mind.

I agree with everyone else...... I'd go to the dr just to be sure.

Thanks guys. I think 'll go today. Especially if I start feeling cramps again. Heading to my exam now. Wish me luck!

Good Luck!

I opted not to go since I haven't had any cramps in a few hours. It's quite possibly gas since I hadn't eaten yet. My exam went well. Funny enough it was about human development and focused a lot on the pre-natal stage. Guess who's been doing her homework? I did check out a day care centre though. It's on campus, really nice and pretty affordable. They take babies as young as 2 months which is perfect since Orange will be about that old when I'm ready to head back to school. The staff seemed nice and the grounds were well-secured. I got an info sheet and I've been reading through and I'm definitely considering it. It's called Kids on Campus. So suitable. I know someone whose daughter is there so I can get some feedback from him. At least when I talk to mum I'll seem to have it all figured out.

Iam, get in to see a doctor as soon as you can. Do you have an appt scheduled? (Sorry if I missed that in another thread). It will put your mind at ease once you speak to a good doc about everything! Breathe and take it slow.

Not as yet but I plan to make one by Friday. It's unlikely I'll get to see an ob/gyn until the end of the month cos I think week 8 is when you have your first check up. I'll try to see the doc on campus to have some blood work done at least and to talk about my diet and such in the meantime.
