Slight Discomfort Posted: 06-06-06 03:05am
Ok.. On friday I found that I was
pregnant.. Which is completely
exciting..
Anyhow I had a miscarriage back in
april... When that pregnancy first
started. I had some cramping.. Almost as
if I were to expect my period and that
once in a while I had to push.. Anyhow I
didnt miscarry till 2 months into it..
Now with this pregnancy I get those same
feelings. The same discomfort.. This
doesnt automatically mean im going to have
the same problem (miscarriage)..
I know it sounds completely stupid but I
dunno it seem similar..
Anyone been here; anyone have any
ideas..
Im waiting for the navy doc's to call
since well they call us to make an
appointment. Totally dumb.. But anyhow
they claim they wont see me till im 8
weeks that will put me on the same page..
Again and ideas!
Thanks

Most places won't see you until you're
about 8 weeks along. They might have you
come in earlier just to confirm your
pregnancy but I don't think you'd have an
actual exam. I don't think there's much
to see before then (at least that's what
my doctor's office told me). Just start
taking your folic acid and prenatals as
soon as you can. And af-like cramps in
the beginning are completely normal. I'm
19 weeks and I still get them
occasionally. If you have any concerns
you can always call your doctor and talk
to a nurse. I had a miscarriage too (as
did many others on this forum) so I know
how nerve-wracking it can be to be
pregnant again. Good luck! I'm sure
you're in a for a happy and healthy 9
months!

I had problems with my last pregnancy and
when I told the nurse this she booked me
right away for a visit. I was only about
5.5 weeks along when I first saw
them.....I am sure if you are really
worried about it they will see you right
away......If they see needed.
